Written by acclaimed German writer, essayist, social critic, intellectual and Nobel Prize laureate Thomas Mann (1875-1955), when he was just 26 years old. Chipping, tears, scuffing, rubbing and staining to spines, with lower left corner missing on vol. 1 and upper right corner on vol. 2. Spine of vol. 2 is loose but present.

Buddenbrooks was Thomas Mann's first novel, published in 1901 when he was 26. It portrays the downfall of a wealthy mercantile family of the German city of Lubeck over four generations. The book is generally understood as a portrait of the German bourgeois society from the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century. It displays Mann's characteristic ironic and detailed style, and it was mainly this novel which won Mann the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1929.
