Demian (Peter Owen Modern Classic) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

From the Nobel Prize winning author of Siddhartha, Steppenwolf and The Glass Bead Game.

Emil Sinclair boasts of a theft that he has not committed and subsequently finds himself blackmailed by a bully. He turns to Max Demian, in whom he finds a friend and spiritual mentor ... Published shortly after the First World War and before Siddharta and Steppenwolf, Demian marks a significant turning point in Hesse's literary career. It is the first time Hermann Hesse used the novel overtly as a means to explore ideas of the self, the meaning and purpose of existence, as well as his own ideas and interpretations of theosophy and Eastern Philosophy. As such it is ranked among the finest of his works.
