The Seasons of the Soul
In The Season of the Soul: The Poetic Guidance and Spiritual Wisdom of
Hermann Hesse, Ludwig Max Fischer, Ph.D., makes Hesse's vivid, evocative
poems on love, imagination, nature, the divine and the passage of time
available in English. Through his commentaries, Fischer helps readers
understand Hesse's poetry and wisdom within the context of his life.
Although Hesse, author of the novels Steppenwolf, Siddhartha, and The
Glass Bead Game, was popular with the counter-culture of the 1960's,
many readers are unaware of his poetry. Hesse, no stranger to the dark
side of life, grew stronger from his struggles. Through his poetry,
readers can draw on his words to discover a more meaningful life. In
this commentary followed by Hesse's poems, Fischer describes Hesse and
his relationship with Nature.
