Hermann Karl Hesse was a German-Swiss poet, novelist, and painter. His best-known works include Demian, Steppenwolf, Siddhartha, and The Glass Bead Game, each of which explores an individual’s search for authenticity, self-knowledge and spirituality. In 1946, he received the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Such great quotes. I especially loved his quote about solitude which I think I’ll remember for quite some time now. The passage about trees was also true and beautiful, and the last quote was one I could hauntingly relate to.

Hesse was my go-to writer in highschool. Narziss und Goldmund to this day is a book I look back on when I’ve found myself at crossroads with others. Same with Siddhartha, but he had a lot of winners. Still think back to Beneath The Wheel.
