The value of real estate in Martin Tony Elton's Book Review It seems that books with a his torical background do not as a us ual thing appeal to the great run of people. However, here is one that dates so far back in history that it) is very interesting to all who read it. Thomas Mann's The Beloved Re turns takes its readers as far back as J 1772 to Johann Wolfgag von Goethe, who was a genius of the most uni-j versal and copious order, with im mense intellectual and emotional en- [ ergy, exceedingly interested in the prenomenon which was himself. The , present world has lost track of this Goethe, so to speak, and Mann has brought him to life in the novel which took him two years and more! to prepare. The most interesting ! thing about the novel is that most of , the events recorded actually occur red. Even though it is this type of I historical novel it is so well clothed in the romantic story that readers will appreciate the labors that the author worker under to prepare it. Critics have said that this is a most delightful and brilliant novel, unrolling a picture of the psychol .u&y of a genius and of the personal j sacrifices made by all those who j surround him, in order that the flame I of this genius might burn more brightly The narrative, rich with humor and subtle psychological im plication, ends with the meeting of the long-ago sweethearts at a dinner party in Goethe's house. The setting I of the novel is the Weirner. Germany, reproduced with extraordinary fi delity and liveliness. Its topical qual ity, as a portrayal of the immediate ly post-Napoleonic period gives it a I stirring intensity of interest in view of events in Europe today. Thomas Mann is already well known to most readers as the au thor of the series, Joseph and His Brothers?three books have already been written in the series and a fourth is being prepared. Most of the stories and novels written by this author have had German settings and German characters This makes them of great interest at the present time when the German people have a foremost place in the newspapers and magazines.
