Produktbeschreibung

"Steppenwolf" by Hermann Hesse is a profound and thought-provoking novel that delves into the inner struggles of a man named Harry Haller. Harry is a solitary and intellectual man who feels out of place in the world and struggles to reconcile his dual nature of being both a refined, cultured individual and a wild, untamed steppenwolf. As he navigates his existential crisis, Harry encounters a young woman named Hermine who introduces him to a world of sensual pleasures and teaches him to embrace his inner desires. But as he becomes more deeply involved in this new world, Harry's internal struggles only intensify, and he must confront the dark side of his own nature. Hailed as a masterpiece of modern literature, "Steppenwolf" is a haunting and powerful exploration of identity, sexuality, and the human condition.
