| The Magic Mountain & The Empusium (a classic, reimagined)

Hiya, This one has been im the mental works for a while, but alas, here we are. What started as a quiet comparison turned into slightly something else. I read "The Magic Mountain" and "The Empusium" alongside eachother and came to the conclusion that in a way, it is possible and impossible to compare the two. So, I sat them both down and talked to each separately. Sometimes the answer was similar and sometimes entirely different. It was as if discussing with two siblings, raised in the same house and yet completely individual in their expressionof an apparently similar story and environment. This is my report on both, together and somehow individually :) maybe this helps you pick or it fuels the desire to read both. Either way, enjoy and thaank you for watching this. Hope you like !
