Hello Veeky Forums. I was planning on reading this author after hearing about pic related. Is he good? Am I in for something, if I may, magical? I don't usually read german authors, but he caught my attention.
What are your thoughts on Thomas Mann? I don't see him at all in this board.

I'm reading this book at the moment, the first 50% or so, which is still about 350 pages, are probably my favourite pages in any book. I'm about 75% in, and the next 25% are still good, though it does slow down, but a big event just occurred so I'm hopeful it'll pick up until the end.
The style is fun. Some characters are so goddamned pompous it's hilarious, and most of the main ones are really well fleshed out, Settembrini is great
which translation should I read
I uploaded a dramatization of The Magic Mountain some months ago, it's fucking brilliant you should listen youtube.com
