hardcover in very good used condition
***parallel text in German and English***
A bilingual collection that brings together 31 of Hesse's lyrical works composed between 1899 and 1921. Known primarily for his novels like Siddhartha and Steppenwolf, Hesse's poetry delves into themes of love, solitude, nature, and a profound sense of homesickness. Wright's translations aim to preserve the emotional depth and simplicity of the originals, offering English-speaking readers insight into Hesse's introspective and spiritual musings. The poems, presented alongside their German counterparts, reflect Hesse's romanticism and his quest for meaning in a rapidly changing world. This collection serves as a testament to Hesse's versatility as a writer and his enduring exploration of the human condition.
