Nobel Prize winner Hermann Hesse’s iconic countercultural novel about the search for authenticity in an inauthentic world in a new translation A Penguin Classic At first glance Harry Haller seems like a respectable educated man. In reality he is the Steppenwolf: wild strange alienated from society and repulsed by the modern age. But as he is drawn into a series of dreamlike and sometimes savage encounters—accompanied by among others Mozart Goethe and the bewitching Hermione—the misanthropic Haller undergoes a spiritual even psychedelic journey and ultimately discovers a higher truth and the possibility of happiness. This blistering portrait of a man who feels himself to be half human and half wolf was the bible of the 1960s counterculture capturing the mood of a disaffected generation. It continues to resonate as a haunting story of estrangement redemption and the search for one’s place in the world.
