Thomas Mann was one of those rare writers who equally succeeded in works of both large and small forms. And if in his novels the content gravitated over the form, in the stories form and content were in perfect harmony. "Small" works included in this collection, belong to different periods of Mann's work. Among them and the story "Death in Venice" - a kind of "calling card" Mann storyteller. Most often, their plots are simple - love and disappointment, expectation of a miracle and the boredom of everyday life, thirst for life and loss of illusions, bringing with it the pain and wisdom of life experience. However, it is the simplicity of the plot that emphasizes the splendor of the author's language, the subtlety of style, and psychological depth.
