Değişen Kafalar’da Thomas Mann, kadim bir Hint hikâyesinden yola çıkarak kimliğin en kırılgan yerini hedef alır: “Ben” dediğimiz şey, akılda mı yaşar, bedende mi? Bir kaza sonucu başlar yer değiştirir; sevgi, sadakat ve tutku ise bu beklenmedik değişimin içinde yönünü kaybeder. Aynı yüz, başka bir zihinle; aynı zihin, başka bir bedenle yaşamak zorunda kalınca, aşk bile kendi gerçeğini sorgulamaya başlar. Mann’ın ironisi, anlatının her kıvrımında hissedilir: Kahramanlar “doğru” olanı ararken, okur da bir sorunun etrafında dönüp durur. Seçim kime aittir?

O munaciello, il diavolo di Mergellina, la leggenda di Capodimonte e molti altri ancora: una Napoli esoterica, magica e circondata dalla nebbia del mito. Mancano a noi le nere foreste del Nord, le nere foreste degli abeti, cui l'uragano fa torcere i rami come braccia di colossi disperati; mancano a noi le bianchezze immacolate della neve che dànno la vertigine del candore; mancano le rocce aspre, brulle, dai profili duri ed energici; manca il mare livido e tempestoso.
