Magic...

The "Magic Mountain" by Thomas Mann. As we will be staying put at least until April 30 this seems to be a good time to re-read a 1,000 page novel about a man who spends seven years in a Sanatorium.

Ah yes, early 20th century European literature was a favourite of mine when I was a student...maybe it's time to dust off Hesse, Kafka, Mann and of course the French existentialists

I think seven years in a garden or chocolate factory would be better....like your composition though V

you will have lots of time to get through such a weighty tome...the blurred areas here add a rich element..

I read it two or three times ! One of the great novel of all times ! And Hans Castorp is still in my mind V.

Superb composition! Reading has become a passion of mine as well during this isolation period.

Sounds like a very apropos read. Fantastic composition and subject and I like the subdued lighting. V.
