Steppenwolf
Steppenwolf
Author: Hermann Hesse
Hermann Hesse's best-known work, a profoundly memorable and affecting novel of a man who tries desperately to come into touch with and develop his animal nature. It is a gripping and fascinating story, and a "savage indictment of bourgeois society."

Hesse's ability to character-develop really soars with this work. Wasn't sure I could like anything better than his famous "Siddartha" but this equals it at least. A darker and more edgy read, it really takes you into the mind of the characters. Very remeniscent of Dostoyevsky. Couldn't put it down!

Steppenwolf is a slightly disturbing story of a killer obsessed by olfactory sensations, particularly scents of women. The main character can be hard to identify with but is pitiful in many regards. I definitely recommend it to mature readers.
