Harry Haller loue un modeste meublé chez une logeuse pour quelques mois ; la cinquantaine, l'homme est bien mis, poli et discret mais attise les curiosités. Le personnage semble lointain, farouche, vivant en marge de ses contemporains qu'il observe avec ironie. Le manuscrit qu'il laissera suite à son départ nous permet de pénétrer son univers. Le roman le plus connu de Hermann Hesse, prix Nobel de littérature en 1946, il est parmi les incontournables chef-d'œuvres du XXème siècle.

Narcissus and Goldmund is the story of a passionate yet uneasy friendship between two men of opposite character.

Hermann Hesse ließ sich oft von den Jahreszeiten zu wundervollen Gedichten und Betrachtungen inspirieren. Seine Texte fangen die geheimnisvolle Aura des Wandels ein - das Aufblühen des Frühlings, die Üppigkeit des Sommers, die Farbenpracht des Herbstes und die Stille des Winters. Christian Berkel interpretiert Hesses Worte so nuancenreich, dass ihre zeitlosen Inhalte geradezu magisch klingen.

Vowing at an early age "to be a poet or nothing at all", Hermann Hesse rebelled against formal education, focusing on a rigorous program of independent study that included literature, philosophy, art, and history. One result of these efforts was a series of novels that became counterculture bibles that remain widely influential today. Another was a body of evocative spiritual poetry. Published for the first time in English, these vivid, probing short works reflect deeply on the challenges of life.

In Knulp (1915) la descrizione della provincia sveva e del mondo artigianale diventa lo sfondo sul quale ai clichés della vita borghese si contrappone la figura del «viandante», capace - secondo Claudio Magris - di ridestare nei borghesi la «nostalgia delle lontananze». Questi stessi temi verranno approfonditi in Klein e Wagner e L'ultima estate di Klingsor, scritti dopo l'incontro di Hesse con la psicoanalisi.

Il pittore Klingsor, a soli quarantadue anni, avverte che la sua intensa e luminosa esistenza non potrà durare a lungo, gravata da una vita troppo piena e appassionata. Questa sarà la sua ultima estate. Si immerge nel piacere e nell'agonia della pittura, trovando gioia e ossessione nella creazione artistica. Le sue giornate finali sono accompagnate dall'autenticità dell'amicizia, da un nuovo e delicato amore, e dalla bellezza di una natura che non teme l'abbandono. Con un animo irrequieto, Klingsor vive con veemenza, slancio e impazienza, cercando di trarre ogni istante vivido dalla vita.
