Author Illies F.
Title 1933. Kogda zahodit solnce. Semejstvo Mann v Sanari
Description Florian Illies, a master of fictionalised historical narrative, creates in his new book a collective portrait of the German cultural intelligentsia who suddenly found themselves confronted with the rise of Nazism in 1933. At the centre is the Mann family, including the celebrated brothers Thomas and Heinrich, as well as Thomas Mann’s children, who were also finding their own paths in literature. Alongside the Manns appear Arnold Zweig, Lion Feuchtwanger, Bertolt Brecht, Aldous Huxley, and many other prominent cultural figures whom fate brought to the seaside town of Sanary-sur-Mer in southern France. The book is written in Illies’s characteristic ironic and tragicomic manner, combining documentary material into a vivid historical collage. The Russian translation is by Mikhail Rudnitsky, winner of several translation awards.
