Kulkija
Kulkija saattaa yhteen Hermann Hessen kaksi keskeistä pienoisteosta - kaksi omaelämäkerrallista matkalla olon kuvausta. Vaellus (1920) vie kaukokaipuisen, itseään etsivän romantikon vaeltelemaan Etelä-Sveitsin vuorille ja laaksoihin. Tuokiokuvia sävyttää maagisen lumoava luonnon ja hengen yhteys. Nürnbergin-matka (1927) puolestaan retuuttaa julkisuuden henkilö Hesseä rautateitse kaupungista toiseen. Lukijan seuralaisia tällä retkellä ovat arosusimainen henkevä huumori, häkellyttävän ajankohtainen yhteiskuntakritiikki ja kertojan säälimätön mutta hyväntuulinen itseironia. Kulkijaan sisältyy suomentaja ja Hesse-tutkija Teppo Kulmalan essee.

Kaksi hyvin erilaista kertomusta ja havainnointia matkalla olosta. Vaellus on jalkapatikoijan luonnon ja kauneuden ylistys lyhyillä tuokiokuvilla, maalauksilla, ja haluaa tuoda erakkoelämän hyvät puolet esiin. Nurnbergin-matka on inhoa Kirjailijana ja ihmisten seurassa olosta, kaupunkeja ja junia, entisen kaipuuta ja kappalejakojen vähäistä käyttöä.
