Description: The book includes novels, short stories and essays by the famous German writer, Nobel Prize winner Hermann Hesse. In the novel Steppenwolf, considered the most important stage in Hesse's writing career, the writer revealed the dualism of the main character. The book marked the beginning of the direction of intellectual novels in German literature, and quotes from the text are used both as a call to action and as an illustration of a personal position. A kind of culmination of Hesse's work was "The Glass Bead Game", a utopian novel of a socio-intellectual orientation, which gave rise to heated discussions and multiple interpretations. The writer worked on the work for a decade and published it in parts. A full-fledged book was published in Zurich at the height of World War II - in 1943. In Hesse's homeland, the last novel of the writer, who had previously been banned for his anti-fascist position, was published only in 1951.
