Mails from NYC usually within 12 hours.; 9.5 x 6.5 x 1.8 inches; 510 pages; Thomas Mann at his tragic best! Jan 5 2000 By D. Roberts Battle Creek Michigan USA - For those of you who have not done so already I would highly recommend reading Marlowe's "Doctor Faustus" and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's "Faust" before taking this one on. It will make more sense that way and will also provide a remarkable opportunity to see the evolution of a wonderful myth. Now to attempt to summarize a masterpiece like this in a few words is absurd but I will do my best. Marlowe's Faust is the most straightforward of the three not that it is not a great work of literature itself mind you . Faust is an absolutely brilliant character who is so brilliant in fact that he is bored with life. So he makes a deal with Mephistopheles one of Satan's demons that he will have 25 years of almost omnipotence being able to do anything and possessing almost god-like powers. However when the 25 years are up his soul will belong to the devil. Goethe's Faust is one of the top 5 or so greatest exemplars of literature ever written. It is quite simply astounding. In short the plot is kinda/sorta the same only in Goethe there is no time limit in the agreement with Mephistopheles. Rather at the point when Faust ceases to press on and becomes sedentary the devil has him. It is the moment in which Faust utters "Stay moment stay.thou art so fair" that he will be doomed. I do not want to say anything more about Goethe's Faust so that I can refrain from giving anything away. At any rate enter Thomas Mann with a 20th century twist on the myth. Adrian Leverkuhn sells his soul to the devil for a new form of music. Satan grants his wish and gives him Schoenberg's 12 tone. Of course it is Leverkuhn's 12 tone in the novel . For Mann this was symbolically a representative of how 20th century man sells his soul to the devil; it is thru the trivialization of art. The 12 tone although a brilliant conception is none-the-less something other than music for Mann and for myself if I may add . Mirrored to Leverkuhn's fate is the seduction of the German people by Adolf Hitler. Hitler promised them great glories and a feeling of invincibility. For a brief time like in a Faustian pact he delivered on his promise. However in the end the Germans paid dearly for their hubris. The end of the war brought along with it the destruction of Her Dresden China; Dresden the very cultural and artistic heart and soul of Germany was all but destroyed. This book is truly an epic and is not for leisure or light reading. However it is a must for anyone interested in the Faustian myth World War II German history Thomas Mann or any combination thereof. A tremendous novel. . Alfred A Knopf hardcover‎
