Hesse's Letters
by G
About This Novel
Everyone loves Hesse! A spiritual friend of young people around the world, a Nobel Prize winner in literature who will always belong to the younger generation. "Don't follow the crowd, the most important thing for us in the world is to be ourselves!" Listen to Hesse and become yourself! The translator selected representative letters from Hesse's 70-year correspondence from 1892 to 1962, which mainly include Hesse's personal growth and development, changes in family and thoughts, the process of pursuit, struggle, and creation, daily letters with his parents, wife, children, and sisters, participation in social public activities, and conversations with colleagues. These letters bear witness to Hesse's life and experience from boyhood to old age, including interactions with great figures of the era such as Zweig, Romain Rolland, Thomas Mann, and others, as well as observations and opinions on individuals and collectives, writing, literature, current affairs, wars, and society. They also show the trajectory of historical alternation and cultural changes over more than half a century.
