About The Author
Thomas Mann
Thomas Mann (1875-1955)
Thomas Mann is widely regarded as the greatest German novelist of the twentieth century. His first novel, Buddenbrooks, was a huge success and led to a Nobel Prize in Literature.
When the Nazis came to power, his works were blacklisted and burned, and Mann was stripped of his citizenship. He spent the latter part of his life in exile in the United States and Switzerland.
His other major novels include The Magic Mountain, Doctor Faustus, and Joseph and His Brothers.
