Thomas Mann himself described 'Death in Venice' as a novella of a daring, if not impossible, subject, referring to the sudden onset of passion in a person's life. The not-so-young writer Gustav Aschenbach - with features reminiscent of Gustav Mahler - discovers the figure of the beautiful boy Tadzio at the sultry Lido of Venice, reaching out to him in his thoughts and becoming consumed by an unfulfilled love, of which he ultimately becomes a victim. This text is presented in the Great Commented Frankfurt Edition (GKFA), including information about Mann's life and work, as well as a detailed afterword by the editor Terence James Reed.
