Synopsis: "Thomas Mann's last great novel first published in 1947… is a modern reworking of the Faust legend in which Germany sells its soul to the Devil. Mann's protagonist the composer Adrian Leverkhn is the flower of German culture a brilliant isolated overreaching figure his radical new music a breakneck game played by art at the very edge of impossibility… Leverkhn's life story is a brilliant allegory of the rise of the Third Reich of Germany's renunciation of its own humanity and its embrace of ambition and nihilism. It is also Mann's most profound meditation on the German genius – both national and individual – and the terrible responsibilities of the truly great artist."…… Doctor Faustus is arguably one of the most significant novels of the twentieth century in any language. Acclaimed as a masterpiece at the time of its original publication Doctor Faustus has been the subject of hundreds of scholarly articles and books. Insurance & handling is included free.
