The Wandering Soul (hesse Works 06)

About This Novel
"The Wandering Soul" consists of three consecutive novels: "Early Spring", "Remembering Knulp" and "The End". It is Hesse's famous "tramp style" novel. The protagonist Knulp is a amiable wanderer who wanders between towns, staying in friends' homes and eating the food given by his friends. Knulp never wanted to be beholden to any industry, place or person, and even abandoned his hiking companion, who was probably Hermann Hesse himself. Knulp's exile was blissful and self-absorbed. However, what lies behind "The Wandering Soul" is the conscience of an artist. In the eyes of this artist, his own liberation is worthless, and even has no morality at all.

Literature is a truly well-coded mind, showing pure light. Various reflected rays of light from the big sun of society are emitted from the source, passing through me, us, and continue to reflect into the distance... It is better than the existence of weeds and rocks, but it coexists here... Shine, shine, whether it is light or warmth, it is what our creatures need, and you don't need to pay attention to it. It is there. Maybe, occasionally you look at it, and it is still there. What I can feel is that it carries a warm breeze, it dazzles with brilliance, and gives us a whole lovely world. Satisfied, sad, wandering souls flow in the wandering...
Hesse won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1946
God does not send us into despair to kill us But to awaken the new life within us

Jenny Marx says! I love green leaves! For those who love peace Give it to Seihei!
The author is neither willing to give up his pursuit of freedom and spontaneity, nor is he willing to lose value due to excessive freedom, which is worth savoring.
Very good(っ??╭╮??)っ
Which one am I? 1. Tianyuan Cat: Simple, has its own small circle, a bit lonely, but surprisingly clingy, preferring to find someone to rely on than being alone. "Hey, please stay with me more from now on~" 2. Shiba Inu: sunny, loves to laugh, but is very sunny at heart, very gentle, a little funny, but will laugh and rub you when you are so angry that you jump. "Huh? Which one do you choose, meat or meat? Of course I will choose meat. After all, meat can feed you~" 3. Emperor Penguin: Cold and charming, keep away from strangers. Even if you have never met, you can feel the aura it exudes. At first glance, you will think that you are a very fierce person, but after he recognizes you, he will treat you as an important person. "Being bullied? Why are you so stupid? Tell me your name and I will confront him." 4. Persian cats: Love beauty, know how to dress up, have some nerves, sometimes they will keep pestering you, sometimes they will suddenly disappear for a long time, they are maverick, almost branded with the word "trend" "Give the baby a new lipstick ~ I love you." 5. Golden Retriever: Steady, gentle, smiling warmly at almost any time, more like a doting big brother than a friend. When you are sad, you want to throw yourself into his arms and cry, like a warm big dog. "Hey, don't cry. Your face won't be pretty if you cry, right?" 6. Siamese cat: Funny, lively, recognized as a little naughty, a little quirky, always gentle and hurried, likes delicate or shiny little things, although it is a bit annoying, but not annoying at all "Hehe~ I caught you!" 7. Deer: Like an elf jumping in the forest, light and cute, but rarely speaks. I want to pet him at first sight. He is proficient in at least one musical instrument. Sometimes he is surprisingly clingy. "I just played one of your favorite songs... Do you want to listen to it?" 8. Hamster: A small, soft, and never serious little guy. He likes to be alone in a warm room. He is easily frightened. If you take him out with you, you will always be regarded as an elder with his younger brother (sister). "Hurry up and give me your glasses... Big bad guy! Are you going to be angry?" 9. White Rabbit: A lovable little cutie, a little shy of strangers, but once you get acquainted with it, it will keep pestering you like a kitten, for fear that you will run away. Its body is a bit like a child, but its essence is like a rabbit that is in heat all year round (laughs) "Don't touch your head... If you touch it again... You will think...//////" 10. Harp Seal: A soft ball, a bit lazy, likes to stay at home, almost always has a head of disheveled soft hair, but when he gets serious, he can be surprisingly handsome, likes to bask in the sun or post cards, and is recognized as a game master "Oh? Did you draw Io Kandar? I lost all my five treasures a few days ago." 11. Scorpion: The eyes of a scorpion are as uncomfortable as those of a scorpion. They are withdrawn, weird, and have a cold personality. Although they don't like to find trouble, they will become hysterical like a madman when the bottom line is touched. They have few friends, but they value their friends very much. "Shut up and stay alone. Don't interrupt when men are arguing. I'll cook for you later." 12. White Bear: It looks cute and is cute to hold, but underneath its cuteness is a stubborn heart. It is a harmless big doll at ordinary times, but when it is angered, it becomes a terrifying tyrant. "Touch you, don't worry about this kind of thing. Even if it were me, I would chase him and fight him." 13. Crow: He has neat short hair, smokes, and has a somewhat cold personality. He will almost always remind people of the bad girls in college. He always wears handsome clothes. He will find it troublesome to dote on others, but he will sigh and touch your head. "Hey, come here, what happened again?" 14. Tiger: Dedicated and domineering, but not very talkative. He always gives people the impression of a mafia boss. He speaks like an emperor and makes people involuntarily convincing. He is very prestigious in the eyes of people around him. "Don't be stupid. It's easy for me to get used to one thing, and I won't change it, so I'm used to you."
The highest state of the soul
The dialogue that begins in "Remembering Knulp" is very exciting and a beautiful philosophical reflection. Only after reading this did I find myself admiring Hesse.
