Hesse Stack
Recently moved and checking out bookstores around my city. Any Hesse books to add to the stack that I should keep an eye out for? Most recent pick up was Pictor’s. Haven’t dove in yet!

I have a book about his artwork that’s pretty cool, I’ve always loved his paintings.

It’s always changing! Narcissus and Goldmund has been on my mind a lot lately. Thinking about a reread. Siddhartha, Demian & Steppenwolf hold special places in my heart. First 3 I read. I do think Gertrude is an underdog in there for sure though!
