Book Description

2 Feb 1999
Hermann Karl Hesse (1877-1962), er schrieb auch unter den Pseudonym Emil Sinclair, war ein deutsch-schweizerischer Dichter, Schriftsteller und Freizeitmaler. 1895 begann Hesse eine Buchhändlerlehre in Tübingen. Ab 1895 arbeitete er in einer Buchhandlung in Tübingen. Noch als Buchhändler veröffentlichte Hesse im Herbst 1898 seinen ersten kleinen Gedichtband Romantische Lieder und im Sommer 1899 die Prosasammlung Eine Stunde Hinter Mitternacht. Alsbald wurde der Roman Peter Camenzind, der 1904 regulär bei Fischer erschien, einen Durchbruch. Von nun an konnte Hesse als freier Schriftsteller leben. Beim Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkrieges appellierte er an die deutschen Intellektuellen, nicht in nationalistische Polemik zu verfallen. 1919 übersiedelte Hesse nach Montagnola, das Hesse über vierzig Jahre seines Lebens zur Heimstadt werden sollte. Der erfolgreichste Roman Hesses war Der Steppenwolf (1927). Ihm wurden unter anderem 1946 der Nobelpreis für Literatur und 1955 die Friedensklasse des Ordens Pour le Mérite verliehen. Zu Hesses bekanntesten Werke gehören: Unterm Rad (1906), Demian (1919), Siddhartha (1922), Narziß und Goldmund (1930) und Das Glasperlenspiel (1943).

3.0 out of 5 stars A girlfriend told me to read this. 2 Oct 2001
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This was the first book by Hesse I ever read and I must say that I really enjoyed it, even though I expected it to be a bit too spiritual for me. I liked the pace and simple, clear style that the author used. If you are looking for deep meanings I am sure you can find them, if not, it can just be enjoyed as a rather pleasant story. It is definitely worth a read at some point.
