John O'Loughlin saw the film DEATH IN VENICE, starring Dirk Bogarde, long before he came to read the book
and, one must say, he wasn't all that keen on it, largely, we suspect, because he could not share the protagonist's romantic
persuasions towards the Polish youth. However, the book is generally a good read and can be accessed via the link below,
where it is coupled with one of his original projects - namely, John O'Loughlin's collected early 'multigenre' philosophy
entitled THE ROAD TO SOCIAL TRANSCENDENTALISM.
