"Man denke sich den folgenden dichterischen Charakter. Ein Mann, edel und leidenschaftlich, aber auf irgendeine Weise gezeichnet und in seinem Gemüt eine dunkle Ausnahme unter den Regelrechten ... vornehm als Ansnahme, aber vornehm als Leidender, einsam, ausgeschlossen vom Glücke, von der Bummelei des Glücks und ganz und gar auf die Leistung gestellt." Was Thomas Mann 1907 noch auf Shakespeares 'Othello' bezog, gestaltete er selbst vier Jahre später zu Gustav Aschenbach in dieser "Novelle gewagten. wenn nicht unmöglichen Gegenstandes", vom plötzlichen "Einbruch der Leidenschaft" in einen homoerotisch veranlagten Menschen. Der nicht mehr junge Schriftsteller Guslav Aschenbach - mit den Gesichtszügen Gustav Mahlers - entdeckt für sich am Lido des schwülwarmen Venedig die Gestalt des apollinisch schönen Knaben Tadzio und strebt in seinen Gedanken zu ihm, steigert sich in eine unerfüllbare Liebe und verspielt damit, nach einem Wort von Heinrich Mann, "was ihm das wünschenswerteste schien".§§Ohne seine eigene Intention zu verbergen, erklärte Thomas Mann später (1920 an Carl Maria Weber) Guslav Aschenbachs Sehnen nach Tadzio: " Es ist das Problem der Schönheit , daß der Geist das Leben, das Leben aber den Geist als 'Schönheitl' empfindet". denn "der Geist, welcher liebt, ist nicht fanatisch... er wirbt, und sein Werben ist erotische Ironie..." Er wollte seine Novelle verstanden wissen als "Übersetzung eines schönsten Liebesgedichtes der Welt ins Kritisch-Prosaische, des Gedichtes, dessen Schlußstrophe beginnt: 'Wer das Tiefste gedacht , liebt das Lebendigste .'" (Hölderlin, 'Sokrates und Alkibiades')

It began with Benny Hogan and Eve Malone, growing up, inseparable, in the village of Knockglen. Benny-the only child, yearning to break free from her adoring parents...Eve-the orphaned offspring of a convent handyman and a rebellious blueblood, abandoned by her mother's wealthy family to be raised by nuns. Eve and Benny-they knew the sins and secrets behind every villager's lace curtains...except their own.§§It widened at Dublin, at the university where Benny and Eve met beautiful Nan Mahlon and Jack Foley, a doctor's handsome son. But heartbreak and betrayal would bring the worlds of Knockglen and Dublin into explosive collision.
