Splendid

Buddenbrooks is a insightfull study into the life of this german family.We follow the Buddenbrook s through three generations and watches closely how the families dominant male character, who runs the family business,changes .The great family firm comes to and end , when the person thats is going to take over is a sensitive artist,not a businessman.Mann manages to deskripe the life of the family and the suroundings historically detailed.It is also a study of a spesific time period in german history.Its a canon.
