Join us for June’s session of our book club to discuss (in German) the book Mann vom Meer by Volker Weidermann to mark the 150th birthday of Thomas Mann. New members welcome!
Volker Weidermann’s new book is an exquisite novelistic biography of Thomas Mann, one of Germany most important authors and winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature. Exploring his enduring fascination with the sea. It takes readers on a whistlestop tour through Mann’s life and work, beginning with a glimpse of his mother’s childhood on the coast of Brazil and ending with an afterword about his daughter Elisabeth’s career as an international expert on maritime law.
