Description:
Nobel Prize-winning German novelist and poet Hermann Hesse was already considered an important writer when in 1919 he published the novel Demian, which made him famous throughout Europe. A brilliant psychological portrait of a troubled young man's quest for self-awareness and his exploration of the duality of human nature, Demian was particularly popular with young adults from its first publication and has remained so ever since, making it a favorite in schools and colleges the world over. In addition to its appeal as a coming-of-age novel, the book is also important to anyone interested in the evolution of 20th-century literature. This excellent, modestly priced new English translation by Stanley Appelbaum will be welcomed by teachers, students, and the legions of confirmed Hesse fans.
