Demian (Hermann Hesse) - Mere Mortals Book Review
from Mere Mortals Book Reviews · host Kyrin Down & Juan Granados
An exploration into the inner world of yourself.'Demian' by Hermann Hesse is a psychological journey of facing fear, pursuing the inner voice and preparing oneself for a life of lonesome transcendence. Young Emil Sinclair grows out of adolescence into early manhood with the help from his enigmatic friend Max Demian. The book is narrated by Sinclair and reveals the challenges he must confront to transform beyond his initial, somewhat weak and naïve beginning. I summarised the book as follows. "Somewhat bizarre at times but the calm mood that runs throughout is perfect. I personally gained much wisdom from this book and believe there are many life lessons to be gained from it. Highly recommended, especially for those interested in understanding the inner voice/mind and how it can be used as a force for good."I hope you have a fantastic day wherever you are in the world.
