Summary

Hörte gern, dass G. den ›Doktor Faustus‹ gelesen hat und dass er den Roman trotz gewisser Schwierigkeiten für sein bestes Buch hält. »If the excitement and anguish experienced by an author while writing a novel is in the least indicative of that novel’s value, ›Faustus‹ should not be unworthly of that ›seat of honour‹ in your library.«
