Overview

Peter Camenzind, a young man from a Swiss mountain village, leaves his home and eagerly takes to the road in search of new experience. Traveling through Italy and France, Camenzind is increasingly disillusioned by the suffering he discovers around him; after failed romances and a tragic friendship, his idealism fades into crushing hopelessness. He finds peace again only when he cares for Boppi, an invalid who renews Camenzind’s love for humanity and inspires him once again to find joy in the smallest details of every life.

Hesse's first novel invests the familiar tale of the loss of innocence with new meaning, for innocence is not an unconscious condition but a deliberate choice.

In 1946, he won the Nobel Prize for Literature. He died in 1962.

    A work of beautiful tragedy

    Few translations ever do the original work justice. However, lovers of Hesse have managed to capture the essence of illustrative prose and made a seamless transition from German to English. This book is a reflection of Hesse's soul and should be read before his later works. It is rewarding to watch his style grow as he discovers Eastern ways of life. As much as I love all his books, this is my pure favorite.

    Good reading when you're in a melancholic mood

    This book deals with fitting in to different parts of society, searching for romance (and failing), being an anti-social alcoholic, and finding truth and originality in a befriended cripple. Highly uplifting if not depressing. It is redundant to say that Hesse is an insightful, penetrating writer.
