Summary/Abstract |
One of the most daring innovators in modern fiction, Hesse wrote in the existentialist tradition of Nietzsche and Dostoevsky. One of the first writers to utilise the theories of Sigmund Freud, he added his own far-reaching speculations of the supernatural. A fascinating study of the disease in man's soul and a scathing indictment of modern bourgeoise society.

Then, through the pages of an ancient, mysterious book, he discovers the enchanted world of Fantastica, and only Bastian himself can save the fairy people who live there.
