Beneath the Wheel
Demian
Journey to the East
Magister Ludi
Peter Camenzind
Rosshalde
Siddhartha
Steppenwolf
Hermann Hesse was born in 1877 in Calw, Germany, and raised in a missionary family. In 1891, he rebelled against organized religion, and fled from the Maulbronn seminary. He worked as a clerk in bookshops for several years before publishing his first novel, "Peter Camenzind", in 1904, followed by "Beneath the Wheel" in 1906. A staunch opponent of WWI, Hesse wrote antiwar tracts from his new home in Switzerland.
"There is no reality except the one contained within us.
That is why so many people live such an unreal life.
They take the images outside them for reality
and never allow the world within to assert itself."
Steppenwolf Herman Hesse
Following the breakup of his first marriage, Hesse underwent psychoanalysis with an assistant of Carl Jung, and this experience heavily influenced his writing from that point on including, "Demian", "Siddhartha", "Steppenwolf", "Journey to the East" and "Magister Ludi". Hesse received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1946, and spent the remainder of his life living in seclusion in Montagnola, Switzerland, until his death in 1962.
