Heinrich Mann - Ronda tanár úr

Heinrich Mann's novel, published in Hungarian as Ronda tanár úr, follows the transformation of a feared high-school teacher. Driven by a desire for revenge, the strict schoolmaster pursues his pupils into a seedy small-town tavern to catch them in their immoral behaviour. Gradually, however, he becomes entangled in the role of dresser to a music-hall singer.

The tyrant's life changes completely and he finds a new path: he uses his wife to unleash moral anarchy on the town. Aristocrats and citizens fall one after another, no longer only in the school examination.

The novel inspired the 1930s film The Blue Angel. This hardcover edition from Magvető Kiadó has 214 pages and belongs to the fiction category, measuring 125 x 185 x 20 mm and weighing 300 g.
