Buddenbrookit 2: Erään suvun rappeutumistarina by Thomas Mann

"Buddenbrookit 2: Erään suvun rappeutumistarina" by Thomas Mann is a novel published in 1901, chronicling the decline of a wealthy north German merchant family across four generations from 1835 to 1877. Drawing from his own family history in Lübeck, Mann portrays the Hanseatic bourgeoisie as finances dwindle, family ideals erode, and happiness becomes increasingly elusive. The novel explores conflicts between business and artistry, examining how rapid industrialization challenges old values and hierarchies, leading to Mann's Nobel Prize in Literature in 1929.
