Description

The Title Refers To An Ultra-Aesthetic Game Which Is Played By Scholars In The Kingdom Of Castalia Around The Year 2400. This Game Involves All Branches Of Knowledge, And Spiritual Values - Especially Those Of The East. Hesse'S Longing To Find A Dynamic Fusion Of Mind With Nature Is Set Forth More Penetratingly In This Book Than In Any Other He Wrote. Critics Have Seen In It A Late, Definitive Stage In His Thinking Influenced By The Tragedy Of Europe In The Second World War.

About the Author

Hermann Hesse (1877-1962) was a German Swiss writer, poet and painter. One of the towering literary figures who helped shape the 20th century, Hesse wrote many great novels including Siddhartha, an allegorical tale on Buddha. A widely travelled man, he also had a deep knowledge on Christianity, Buddhism, philosophy and theosophy and these influences played an important role to give him a unique style which still remains unparalleled. Hesse was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1946.
