"The electrifying influence exercised on a whole
generation by DEl\liAN is unforgettable."
says:
DEMIAN
By
Hermann Hesse
author of
Steppenwolf
This novel by one of the greatest figures
in
European
letters, winner of the 1946 Nobel Prize in Literature,
is the story of an adventu're
as
dangerous, exciting,
and far-reaching as the exploration of a new conti–
nent. It is the story of one man's search for and
conquest of his soul. For Americans sensitive to the
issues and compulsions of our time, it will have a per–
sonal significance over and beyond its importance as
a classic of contemporary literature.
