About the book

Hermann Hesse's Steppenwolf follows Harry Haller, an isolated intellectual who feels divided between his civilised human side and a wild, instinctive 'wolf.' His encounter with new companions draws him into music, dancing and a surreal Magic Theatre where his identity is repeatedly challenged. The novel explores loneliness, self-division and spiritual transformation, using Harry's inner conflict to examine the difficulty of reconciling different sides of the self. Its mixture of psychological realism and dreamlike experience gives the story a distinctive, unsettling atmosphere.
