Kuolema Venetsiassa by Thomas Mann
"Kuolema Venetsiassa" by Thomas Mann is a novella published in 1912. Gustav von Aschenbach, a disciplined and celebrated writer in his fifties, travels to Venice seeking respite. There, he becomes increasingly obsessed with Tadzio, a beautiful Polish boy staying at his hotel. As Aschenbach's fixation deepens, he ignores mounting signs of danger in the city, surrendering his dignified restraint to pursue forbidden desire. Mann crafts a haunting tale of artistic passion, aging,
and moral decay. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
