About the book

Thomas Mann's Buddenbrooks traces the fortunes of a prosperous German merchant family across several generations. Beginning with confidence and commercial success, the family gradually experiences personal, financial and cultural decline. Through marriages, business decisions and changing ambitions, Mann explores the tension between bourgeois duty and artistic sensitivity. The novel is both an intimate family chronicle and a broader portrait of social change in nineteenth-century Germany.
