Thomas Mann, right, with his brother Heinrich.<\/p><\/div>\n

In December 1903, Thomas Mann wrote his older brother, Heinrich, a long letter reviewing the latter\u2019s novel\u2014with brutal candor. Some of the most scathing bits are below. The complete missive\u00a0is in\u00a0<\/em>The Letters of Heinrich and Thomas Mann, 1900\u20131949<\/a>.<\/p>\n

My impressions? They are not exactly very pleasant\u2014which impressions, indeed, don\u2019t absolutely need to be. It didn\u2019t exactly make agreeable reading\u2014which, indeed, however, is absolutely not necessary either. I struggled back and forth with the book, threw it aside, took it up again, groaned, complained, and then got tears in my eyes again \u2026 For days, in the lowest barometric pressure in a hundred years (according to the meteorologist), I went about in the agony your book caused in me. Now I know approximately what I have to say to you.<\/p>\n

That I am not in agreement with your literary development\u2014that must finally be said \u2026 When I think back ten, eight, five years! How do you appear to me? How were you? A refined connoisseur\u2014next to whom I seemed to myself eternally plebeian, barbaric, and buffoonish\u2014full of discretion and culture, full of reserve toward \u201cmodernity\u201d and historically as talented as could be, free of all need for applause, a delicate and proud personality for whose literary endeavors there would quite probably be a select and receptive public \u2026 And now, instead of that? Instead, now these strained jokes, these vulgar, shrill, hectic, unnatural calumnies of the truth and humanity, these disgraceful grimaces and somersaults, the desperate attacks on the reader\u2019s interest! \u2026 I read them and I don\u2019t know you anymore. The psychological constant of the work, the desire of weak artificiality for life, this desire that would gladly masquerade as amorous desire within the lonely and sensuous artist\u2014how is it supposed to move, to work convincingly when not even an attempt is being made to come close to life, to observe and capture even the air of the inner impulse of this simple madcap? Everything is distorted, screaming, exaggerated, \u201cbellows,\u201d \u201cbuffo,\u201d romantic in the bad sense \u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dear Heinrich, I\u2019m speaking candidly and saying things that I\u2019ve had on my heart for the longest time. It is, in my view, a greediness for effect that is corrupting you \u2026 you\u2019ve made yourself so healthy that you can work six hours a day, but what you produce is sick, not because it is itself pathological, but because it is the result of a distorted and unnatural development and of an addiction to effect that becomes you unspeakably badly \u2026 I find no trace of discipline, of resolution, of a bearing toward language \u2026 Ambition, na\u00efvet\u00e9, unscrupulousness\u2014those are indeed qualities of the \u201cartist,\u201d the \u201cpure artist\u201d whose role you have taken on, and I wouldn\u2019t reproach you with them if I didn\u2019t know that they are so utterly foreign to your original being and nature \u2026<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve reached the end. Some of it came out harder than I intended and I would probably copy the letter in milder terms if it were not that I\u2019m permanently afflicted by a kind of writer\u2019s cramp. May you then read the epistle as it is \u2026 I\u2019m not at all without doubt. Perhaps if you save this letter and it comes to light one day, perhaps a later generation will find it amusing how a younger brother couldn\u2019t appreciate your greatness\u2014perhaps \u2026<\/p>\n

A pleasant Christmas and a fruitful New Year!<\/p>\n

Your T.<\/p>\n
