STEPPENWOLF is a poetical self-portrait of a man who felt himself to be half-human and half-wolf. This Faust-like and magical story is evidence of Hesse's searching philosophy and extraordinary sense of humanity as he tells of the humanization of a middle-aged misanthrope. Yet this novel can also be seen as a plea for rigorous self-examination and an indictment of the intellectual hypocrisy of the period. As Hesse himself remarked, 'Of all my books STEPPENWOLF is the one that was more often and more violently misunderstood than any other'.
Hermann Hesse was born in Calw, Germany in 1877. After a short period at a seminary he moved to Switzerland to work as a bookseller. From 1904 he devoted himself to writing, establishing his reputation with a series of romantic novels. During the First World War he worked for the Red Cross and afterwards, consolidated his position as a leading contemporary thinker. Hesse won many literary awards including the Nobel Prize in 1946. He died in 1962 at the age of eighty-five.

评分这本书当时读完后久久不能平静,主题和思想上给我的震撼是短短一篇文章无法说尽的,我在这里只是简单粗浅的谈一下这部书在历史上的伟大之处,主要是自己的一点见解,欢迎批评指正。 正如题目所说,我认为这是一部承上启下之作。 这本书成书于一战之后,二战之前,时间上很容易...
评分对于我这个活得认真的人来说,追究生命存在的意义是个两难问题。只是活着不去过问意义,生活不免流于表面和空虚;而纠结于意义又限于痛苦,而且似乎是徒然浪费精力而无解,生命的意义是个不能深究的命题。一直被身边的朋友说,干吗想这么多,自找麻烦。可是,我就是这样的人,...
