Centering on a sanatorium, the author of this book describes plenty of feudal nobilities and bourgeoisies, for instance, Prussian military officer, Russian noble lady, Dutch Colonist, Catholic and so on, which are parasites in the society at that time. The whole sanatorium pervades a sick and perishing atmosphere, which symbolizes the decline of capitalism civilization. Through mental conflicts between different figures, the book dedicates the blood relation between decadentism and fascism. The hero Hans Castorp attends war to get rid of boring and empty life, indicating the internal relation between the European bourgeois social life and war.
