Synopsis "Le Loup des steppes (in French)"

Expérience spirituelle, récit initiatique, délire de psychopathe, Le Loup des steppes multiplie les registres. Salué à sa parution en 1927 (entre autres par Thomas Mann, qui déclare : « Ce livre m’a réappris à lire »), interdit sous le régime nazi, roman culte des années 1960 et 1970, c’est une des œuvres phares de la littérature universelle du xxe siècle. Il méritait une nouvelle traduction. Le voici enfin rendu avec tout l’éclat de ses fulgurances, la troublante obscurité de ses zones d’ombre.Nouvelle traduction de l’allemand par Alexandra Cade.

Herman Hesse was born in 1877 in Calw. He followed professions as diverse as a clergyman and a mechanic, but with the publication of his first novel, Peter Camenzind (1904), he managed to establish himself as a writer. His literary work placed him among the most important authors of the 20th century. His most notable titles are: Demian (1919), Siddhartha (1922), Steppenwolf (1927), and The Glass Bead Game (1943). Among many other distinctions, he received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1946. He died in 1962, at the age of 85 in Montagnola.
