Om denne e-bog
A man torn between family obligations and his longing for spiritual fulfillment.
Rosshalde is the classic story of Johann Veraguth, a wealthy, successful artist who feels estranged from his wife and stifled by their unhappy union. His love for his young son and fear of drifting rootlessly keep him bound within the walls of his opulent estate, Rosshalde. Yet when shaken by an unexpected tragedy, Veraguth finally finds the courage to leave the desolate safety of his home. He travels to India to discover himself anew in this poignant tale of family, love, and the search for meaning.
From Nobel Prize-winning author Hermann Hesse, Rosshalde is a masterful exploration of the conflict between convention and spiritual awakening. With its lush, evocative prose and heartbreaking insight into the human condition, this modernist classic is a must-read for fans of philosophical novels and 20th-century German literature.
