Nobel Prize winner in 1929, Thomas Mann wins reissue in Brazil

Laureate of the 1929 Nobel Prize for Literature, German writer Thomas Mann (1875-1955) followed the most fundamental historical events recorded between the end of the 19th century and the middle of the 20th century. As Mário Luiz Frungillo, professor of Literary Theory, informs us from the Unicamp and translator of the work (Companhia das Letras), originally published in 1955, the arc that extends from 1910 to 1950, decades during which the author wrote, intermittently, the adventures and misadventures of Felix Krull, “it was not a period any."
