His grandfather, Hans Lorenz Castorp, wasa conservative man and followed old traditions. A year and half later his grandfather died and he was sent to live with his guardian Consul Tienappel, his mother's uncle.
He had a privileged life with his uncle. His inheritance was invested well. But, living off the interest will not give him a privileged life. Hans Castorp decided to be an engineer.

The atmosphere of the metropolitan seaport, the damp atmosphere of global shopkeeping and prosperity, had been the air of life for his forefathers, and with great gusto he breathed it now as a matter of course and found it profoundly satisfying.

And in his curiosity, Hans Castorp took a deep breath, testing the alien air. It was fresh - that was all. It lacked odor, content, moisture, it went easily into the lungs and said nothing to the soul.

I actually started this book on October 2, 2026. It is a good read. I must look up some words because of the time the book was written and the country of Switzerland where the novel is taking place.
Hans Castorp has lost his mother and father within months of each other. His mother died first of a embolism and the following spring his father died. At seven years of age he went to live with his grandfather.
