"Tonio Krüger, son of a wealthy Lübecker merchant and consul and a sensuous, Southern European mother, struggles in his adopted home of Munich to find his place as a writer. When he returns to his childhood home in Lübeck and then to Denmark, his childhood seems to recur--including his love for the blond, blue-eyeds. He comes to acknowledge that he is both bourgeois and an artist."
