Hermann Hesse is a difficult author who demands active empathy and co-creation from the reader. But at the same time, this writer managed to become incredibly popular among completely different groups of readers: from hippies to pacifists, from European intellectuals to eco-activists. Hesse's life is as fascinating as the novels he writes. From a happy childhood to suicide attempts and treatment in a clinic for the mentally ill in his youth, from early landscape lyrics to the filigree novel "The Bead Game" - Alois Prinz leads us through the labyrinths of the writer's biography, page by page bringing us closer to understanding the "reclusive eccentric" Hermann.
