Description:

Paperback. First English Translation.

This volume, the first edition of Hermann Hesse's poetry to be published in Great Britain, begins to correct an inexplicable oversight. For if the author of The Glass Bead Game, Siddhartha and The Journey East had never written a single novel, his poems alone would have established him as a distinctive and eloquent voice. James Wright, himself a notable poet, has selected and translated thirty-one poems from Hesse's Collected Works (Gesammelte Chriften). Talking as his guide the closing passages of Seppenwolf, Wright has chosen poems around the theme of homesickness, the longing for a lost state of peace - a state which Hesse never found but always sought.
