Hermann Lauscher (German Edition)

This book contains two works by the immortal Hermann Hesse. One, Hermann Lauscher was written in his youth, and another - in his later years: Journey to the East. Hermann Lauscher is, according to Hesse, is "a book of confessions for me and my friends", it is the story of a poet who delivers the art of verse with delicate philosophical discussions, themes that predict the coming explorations of Hesse: the immense differences between people and the quest of finding the path to personal freedom. In this writing, we find an original author that tells a story with a bright, clear, and comprehensive pen that sometimes tends to escape reality to plunge himself into the realms of eternity where his dream landscapes, fantasies, and spiritual journeys lead to. That atmosphere he would develop with great care and elegance in his following work.
