Winner of the Nobel Prize 

In addition to "Death in Venice," this volume also includes "Mario and the Magician," "Disorder and Early Sorrow," "A Man and His Dog," "Felix Krull," "The Blood of the Waslungs," "Tristan," and "Tonio Kroger." These stories, as direct as Mann's novels are complex, are perfect illustrations of their author's belief that "A story must tell itself." Varying in theme, style and tone, each is in its own way characteristic of Mann's prodigious talents.
