1982 1st 1982. First edition. Hardcover. Dust Jacket Included. Translated from the German by Richard and Clara Winston. 32 pp. photos. New York: Harry N. Abrams 1982. First edition. An utterly candid diarist Mann began keeping a journal as a schoolboy in Lubeck during the 1890's but later burned his youthful notebooks in fear that someone might read them. Mann nevertheless resumed the practice chronicling the steady growth and notable events of his brilliant literary career including his Nobel Prize in Literature in 1929 as well as his daily thoughts hopes fears and aspirations and his exile from Germany immediately prior to and during World War II. All in all a revealing look at one of Europe's greatest writers. Barring some light edgewear to jacket this is a fine copy. <br/><br/> 1982 1st hardcover books
