This is maybe oddly specific but I was wondering about literature that was written/takes place in Marienbad (Mariánske Lázne), Czech Republic.
I know *Kafka* spent 14 days in Marienbad with Felice Brauer in 1916 and visits the place later in 1920 again for a couple of days. He recalls those days to be among his happiest. I also know about *Goethes* poem “Marienbader Elegie”. And of course, there is this quite odd/artistic film “Last year in Marienbad” (with beautiful Chanel costumes) from *Alain Resnais*. My obsession goes so far that I booked a trip there within the next couple of weeks.
Marienbad (along with Karlsbad) is one of the spa places, where European aristrocats and writers/artists of the 19th/early 20th century went and I somehow have urge to know more about the place through art. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
