Produktbeschreibung

Hermann Hesse's "Steppenwolf" is a thrilling trip into the human soul. Readers are immersed into a world of psychological distress and emotional suffering via the protagonist, Harry Haller.

As he navigates his conflicts, he meets Hermine, a mysterious young woman who takes him on a journey of self-discovery and tender pleasures. However, as Harry dives deeper into this new world, he must confront the worst aspects of his soul.
