About this product
Product Information
Few American readers seem to be aware that Hermann Hesse, author of the epic novels Steppenwolf and Siddhartha , among many others, also wrote poetry, the best of which the poet James Wright has translated and included in this book. This is a special volume--filled with short, direct poems about love, death, loneliness, the seasons--that is imbued with some of the imagery and feeling of Hesse's novels but that has a clarity and resonance all its own, a sense of longing for love and for home that is both deceptively simple and deeply moving.

"Rilke, T. S. Eliot, Gide, Thomas Mann rightly called Hesse a master... His fiction achieves the glorious anachronism of art: created in the past, it speaks to us in the present. It glorifies the strategies of attempting to become a full human being and it celebrates the nobility of failure."--Webster Schott, Life "Hesse is a writer of suggestion, of nuance, of spiritual intimation."-- Christian Science Monitor "One of the defining spirits of our century."--Ralph Freedman, Princeton University, "Rilke, T.
