Hermann Hesse wrote this (his 10th novel) in 1927 during a prolonged existential crisis caused by the Great War, marriage problems and a severe depression. It explores themes of suicidal depression, the plurality of inner voices/desires and intense loneliness. A book that is 'For Madmen Only'.\n\rAs always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!","author_name":"Juan Granados & Kyrin Down"}
