출판사 설명
Steppenwolf is a poetical self-portrait of a man who felt himself to be half-human and half-wolf. This Faust-like and magical story is evidence of Hesse's searching philosophy and extraordinary sense of humanity as he tells of the humanization of a middle-aged misanthrope. Yet his novel can also be seen as a plea for rigorous self-examination and an indictment of the intellectual hypocrisy of the period. As Hesse himself remarked, "Of all my books Steppenwolf is the one that was more often and more violently misunderstood than any of the others".

Unique and Sublime
Hesse displays a very unique, unhinged style that connects on a deep level. Ultimately there is no clear resolution in life short of transcendence.
Weird but a great read
Even through the lens of 1920’s Germany, this was strange. I wanted ti dislike it, but could barely put it down. What a way to relate a view of a life poorly lived, but still with hope that it is never too late to change.
