About This Book
Hans Giebernath lives among the dull and respectable townsfolk of a
sleepy Black Forest village. When he is discovered to be an
exceptionally gifted student, the entire community presses him onto a
path of serious scholarship. Hans dutifully follows the regimen of study
and endless examinations, his success rewarded only with more crushing
assignments. When Hans befriends a rebellious young poet, he begins to
imagine other possibilities outside the narrowly circumscribed world of
the academy. Finally sent home after a nervous breakdown, Hans is
revived by nature and romance, and vows never to return to the gray
conformity of the academic system.

Goldmund, and The Glass Bead Game. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in
Literature in 1946. Hermann Hesse died in 1962.
