| book description |

It is summertime in the Swiss Alps. Hans Castorp, an â€˜ordinary young manâ€™, has arrived at an exclusive sanitorium for a brief visit to his convalescent cousin. Once there, time will lose its familiar contours, as Hans himself falls ill and loses himself in a landscape of dreams, beauty and eternal snow. The Magic Mountain is Thomas Mannâ€™s masterwork: a Bildungsroman that is also an allegory of Europe before the devastations of the First World War and a profound meditation on time, art, sickness and death. John E. Woodsâ€™ virtuoso translations of Thomas Mannâ€™s novels are widely recognized as the best versions available in English.
