Knulp: Three Tales from the Life of Knulp

1915 • 114 pages

“A father can pass on his nose and eyes and even his intelligence to his child, but not his soul. In every human being, the soul is new.”

This is another brilliant masterpiece by Hesse. It's about this fascinating character, Knulp who enjoys being a vagabond, an onlooker who likes to live in the moment. He makes you happy, he makes you feel sad and in the end, he makes you think. Hesse's philosophical epigrams have always been a treasure! Such is the beautiful epic of Knulp!
