Mephisto
By Klaus Mann
| Hendrik Hofgen is a man obsessed with becoming a famous actor. When the Nazis come to power in Germany, he willingly renounces his Communist past and deserts his wife and mistress in order to keep on performing. His diabolical performance as Mephistopheles in Faust proves to be the stepping-stone he yearned for: attracting the attention of Hermann G??ring, it wins Hofgen an appointment as head of the State Theatre. The rewards the respect of the public, a castle-like villa, a uplace in Berlin's highest circles are beyond his wildest dreams. But the moral consequences of his betrayals begin to haunt him, turning his dreamworld into a nightmare. | |
