Three years after Hesse's first journey to the East, he published Rosshalde, his fourth novel. In it he tells the story of a world-famous painter, Johann Veraguth, whose wealth and fame should make him a happy man, but he is trapped in an empty marriage and all but destroyed by it. Veraguth's only joy, his son Pierre, is the tie that binds him to this life. But one day tragedy strikes, and sparks within him a journey of self-discovery. Breaking free from his suffocating marriage, Veraguth journeys to India in search of a more authentic life.
