About This Novel

"The Wandering Boyhood" describes the difficult journey of young Sinclair's pursuit of self. Sinclair, who was born and grew up in the "light world", accidentally discovered a completely different "another world". The chaos and darkness there made him anxious and confused, and he fell into the disaster caused by lies. At this time, a young man named Demian appeared and took him out of the swamp. From then on, he began to walk towards loneliness and find himself. In the years that followed, "Demian" appeared in different identities, becoming his guide every time he was searching alone and making difficult decisions... The whole novel is written in Hesse's iconic lyrical style. It is a psychological novel that describes the process of implementing the true self and explores one's own destiny. It can be said to be Hesse's monumental masterpiece.

Germans are very suitable for writing this kind of literature and philosophical works. I have already experienced the rigor of German, (masculine, feminine, neutral, various variations). I think this kind of book is not meaningful to read, or if you want to read it, you should read the German version.

Ignorance of sex in adolescence has led many people astray. When I was young, I didn't know what adults were worried about or thinking about. In fact, everyone has experienced a transformation in the process of transition from youth to adulthood. Just as Marx said in the book that you see the world from the egg breaking out of the shell, in fact, it is not only the primitive impulse of sex, but also all kinds of things appear in our heads for no reason during adolescence. There are all kinds of things that scare us but we want to try. Many people think that they have mental illness, but in fact they are just going through a process of heightened self-awareness. Maybe during this process, your memory of childhood becomes blurred and unbearable, but this is the process of your growing up. In this process, you will truly accept and integrate into this society where darkness and light coexist. You will eventually redeem yourself in the chaos and spend your wandering youth.

Memory of childhood and the outside world

It is truly a journey of self-exploration. I always feel that even if some people fall, they will not perish after all. In contrast, some people do not escape degradation even when they are in comfort.

I really like Hesse's book. This book tells a story of self-growth. The inner struggle from fragility to confusion, and finally finding the strength of oneself and becoming strong. I like what Mrs. Ava said: Don't give in to a wish you don't believe in. Either make a clean break or just embrace her with confidence. The story of the poet who fell in love with a star is beautiful but sad.
