Do you have any favorite writers who are of sexually enlightened denominations? Who are they? Thomas Mann is my favorite gay writer

Does Georges Bataille count? If so he's pretty based and I enjoy his novels.

Try his short stories first.

If you want something short try Tonio Kröger (maybe avoid Death in Venice as an entry point). If you want something longer try Buddenbrooks.

The Porter translation of Faustus is by far inferior to the later Woods translation.

I dont know why everyman didn't re reissue their edition as they did with everything else. .

Thomas Mann is fantastic, though he seems to be a bit of a blindspot for /lit/.

>>14757892
I've been looking for it too, though in my native swedish. His other major works all got stellar new translations in the 2010s and are in print; Joseph and His Brothers not so much.
