Not yet but soon hopefully, I loved Siddhartha

I love Hesse, especially Steppenwolf, Siddharta and Narcisse and Goldmund but i have to read this one.
I hear it's different and kinda hard to decipher.

it's a solid 5/5 masterpiece.

it's helpful to read other hesse to build up to it since it's the final synthesis and culmination of all of his other major works

Yes, it was very enjoyable but the ending is kind of lame but fitting after further reflection. The three autobiographies at the end are top-tier too, though I didn't really get the poetry and I'm not sure if it's because I was dense or because of general translation issues

I read it a long time ago but I'm old and forgot most of it. I remember really liking it though, I might give it a reread.

The most deeply aesthetic book I've ever read.
