About This Item
New York, Bantam Books, 1970. Paperback. Good. Hesse portrays the turmoil of Emil Sinclair, a docile young man who is draw n by his schoolmates into a secret and dangerous world of petty crime and r evolt against convention. This first major novel by Nobel Prize-winning aut hor Hermann Hesse incorporates a theme he returned to again and again in mo st of his works: the fundamental duality of existence. The youthful protago nist, Emil Sinclair, recognizes that life consists of opposing forces; howe ver, his older friend, Max Demian, manages to both clarify and complicate S inclair's confusion about life's conflicting values. Recounted in engaging prose, rich in sympathy and imagination, this brilliant psychological portr ait of a troubled young man's exploration of the polarities of human nature has retained its remarkable power as a poignant statement of terrors and t orments of adolescence. Hesse's classic tells of the turmoil of Emil Sincla ir, a docile young man who is drawn by his schoolmates into a secret and da ngerous world of petty crime and revolt against convention.
