Is it a totally captivating read because of this? You know it. And how art and desire are super entangled with each other.
To be clear, when we say writer, we are referring to an adult one-which means this love is all kinds of forbidden.īefore you consider burning your copy of the book in outrage, though, consider this: This book is actually about art. Say hello to Thomas Mann's Death in Venice, a novella about a writer who falls in love with a young Polish boy, and that's been raising eyebrows ever since its publication in 1912. Now, dear Shmoopers, is one of those times. We at Shmoop bring you only the very best in literature… and sometimes this includes the most scandalous in literature as well.
