THOMAS MANN
 6 June 1875 – 12 August 1955) 
 6 June 1875 – 12 August 1955) 
 German novelist, short story writer, social critic, philanthropist, essayist, 
Nobel Prize in  Literature laureate.    
When World War II broke out in 1939, he moved to the United States, then returned to Switzerland in 1952. Mann is one of the best-known exponents of the so-called Exilliteratur, German literature written in exile by those who opposed the Hitler regime. 
Mann's diaries reveal his struggles with his homosexuality, which found reflection in his works, most prominently through the obsession of the elderly Aschenbach for the 14-year-old Polish boy 
Tadzio in the novella Death in Venice ( 1912). 
This tea salon will focus on Death in Venice, which became a film in 1971, 
directed by Luchino Visconti.
