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.
