Serian 5 estrellas si no hubiera leído los demás libros de Herman Hesse, pero en realidad es una gran lectura rápida

Lectura corta, es una combinación entre reflexiones filosóficas y descripciones de naturaleza (algunas en forma de cuento), con algunos poemas. Las reflexiones son de un tono espiritual, sin la necesidad de ser religiosas, sobre viajes y ambientes naturales y en si mismas son microrrelatos que pueden leerse en conjunto o separados.
Encontrar este libro es algo complicado, pues ya no es editado, pero si lo comparamos con algunas otras obras del autor, está más cercano a "Siddhartha" que "Bajo la rueda". Si lo encuentras, y gustas del autor, vale la pena, y no te va a tomar más de una hora leerlo.
