Thomas Mann's last great novel, first published in 1947 and now newly rendered into English by acclaimed translator John E. Woods, is a modern reworking of the Faust legend, in which Germany sells its soul to the Devil. Mann's protagonist, the composer Adrian Leverkühn, is the flower of German culture, a brilliant, isolated, overreaching figure, his radical new music a breakneck game played by art at the very edge of impossibility. In return for twenty-four years of unparalleled musical accomplishment, he bargains away his soul—and the ability to love his fellow man.

Worth it
Revisado: 04-16-25
An excellent audio recording. The Rintoul keeps the story telling lively, embodying the story’s narrator, Serenus Zeitblom, as he tells of the life of Adrian Leverkühn. The only difficulty of this recording is the one that all translated audiobooks face—namely, that one never quite knows how the foreign names read on paper, just the way they sound when read aloud. That said, I highly recommend both the book and this version.
