“Seikleja Felix Krulli pihtimused” Thomas Mann (nr 970)

Adventure novel.

The talent of Nobel laureate Thomas Mann, the author of the epic “Buddenbrooks” and the philosophical “Võlumäe”, shines just as brightly in the adventure novel genre.
The hero of this book, Felix Krull, is the Casanova of the 20th century – a daring fortune hunter who, thanks to his good knowledge of people and the ability to charm, makes a brilliant career, reaches the royal palace from the position of an elevator boy. On his winding path of life, the erotomaniac grand adventurer does not leave a single heart unconquered, does not consider a single woman too young or too old, ugly thin or excessively skinny. Falling in love with mother and daughter at the same time, he does not bother to choose, but takes both. Of course, sometimes he gets into dangerous, sometimes comical situations…
