Chauchat (show-shay)
The main character's group of hangers-on includes the sadistic piano player Wehsel, and the malapropic Frau Stohr. At first bothered by the constant door-slamming of Claudia Chauchat (show-shay), the main character later falls in love with her. In the climax, Leo Naphta commits suicide after a failed duel with the humanist Settembrini; and both men feel inferior to the inarticulate Meynheer Peeperkorn. For ten points, name this novel featuring Joachim Ziemssen and his cousin Hans Castorp, taking place in a sanitarium and written by Thomas Mann.
