International Santiorium Berghof

Chapter Two was completed and I found my seduction becoming total, surrounding with me its philosophical weight. The sections devoured today concerned the life of young Hans, the passing of his parents and his subsequent life with his grandfather, who exists outside of history, in that his portait appears to Hans more real than the body organic. Continuity is a resonant theme throughout the section, life reduced to a seriel repetition or rutal is an idea broadside in this section, As Hans matures towards university, Mann attempts to categorize without resorting to definitions like "mediocre" which lack the elan and the verve of the situation.

Natasa noted that when Hans' grandfather promotes a morning glss of port for his peekish grandson and resulting drowsiness constitutes "pure bliss" for Hans, that I often appear most contented 4-5 pints into my cups.
