Mann s short stories explore his abiding interest in the split nature of humanity and the discordance of the world it inhabits. In A Man and his Dog , domestic tempests are symbols of the muddle of humanity. In The Black Swan , the demands of intellect clash with physical desires. And in Mario and the Magician a young family on holiday in Italy encounters a creepy entertainer: Cipolla, a hypnotist with a fascist-like will to control his audience.Written between 1918 and 1953, this collection shows the literary development of one of Germany s most important writers.
