About the author

Hermann Hesse

1,795 books19.5k followers
Many works, including Siddhartha (1922) and Steppenwolf (1927), of German-born Swiss writer Hermann Hesse concern the struggle of the individual to find wholeness and meaning in life; he won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1946.

Other best-known works of this poet, novelist, and painter include The Glass Bead Game , which, also known as Magister Ludi, explore a search of an individual for spirituality outside society.

In his time, Hesse was a popular and influential author in the German-speaking world; worldwide fame only came later. Young Germans desiring a different and more "natural" way of life at the time of great economic and technological progress in the country, received enthusiastically Peter Camenzind , first great novel of Hesse.

Throughout Germany, people named many schools. In 1964, people founded the Calwer Hermann-Hesse-Preis, awarded biennially, alternately to a German-language literary journal or to the translator of work of Hesse to a foreign language. The city of Karlsruhe, Germany, also associates a Hermann Hesse prize.

Vooral Narziss en Goldmund is een intrigerend verhaal, op de voet gevolgd door Peter Camenzind en Gertrud. Zo goed beschreven dat je vrijwel onmiddellijk in de huid van de hoofdpersoon kunt kruipen.
Fabuleuze vertellingen is een verzameling sterke verhalen, passend bij de titel. "Een golfje op de stroom" is een verzameling aforismen, die nu een beetje gedateerd aan doen.
