Lovely entry in your blog, very evocative. Thank you.
As to the Zauberberg (a book that has been with me all my life and that has shaped who I am), this week I started listening once again to the wonderful lockdown reading by Sven Walser, in the Ernst Deutsch Theater in Hamburg in 2020.

Happy Birthday, Thomas Mann.
Reposting here an earlier post of mine, pointing to a wonderful reading of all of Thomas Mann's Zauberberg, The Magic Mountain.
Yes, all of it. In 114 half-hour episodes.
The reading took place on the stage of a Hamburg theatre during the 2020 lockdown, by actor Sven Walser, who died in 2023.
It is a nuanced and faithful reading, and it is fresh, without the grandfatherly pomposity of some of the audiobooks.
(In German, so it helps if you know a little German,)

Thomas Mann's 1924 novel The #MagicMountain is a demanding and absorbing book that gives back generously if you give it your time.
During the 2020 lockdown, actor #SvenWalser read the entire novel on a sparse set in Hamburg's #ErnstDeutschTheater, in 114 half-hour episodes.
This reading is the real thing: fresh, unpretentious, nuanced, alive. In German.
If you speak a little German, you will enjoy it.
