Steppenwolf Book Review by Herman Hesse

Steppenwolf is a novel by Herman Hesse with lots of deep messages about life and in particular, our approach to it.

I would say that despite this book at times being a tad odd (especially the third part), it is a book for those who feel they are in a "liminal" space between longing for the old world yet fearing the new world if they don't approach this new world with the right mindset.

Steppenwolf tells us that as humans, we have - and need to have - different personalities. We're not just humans or wolves. This is a book I'll definitely be rereading so it will stay on my bookshelves. It's a book for this time - and indeed a book for any middle-ager (like me).

While reading this book, I had the strong image of the Yin/Yang symbol - a fluidity - which indeed, the book read like I was on some psychedelic.

Over to you.
