Demian: The Story of a Youth by Hermann Hesse
4.0

I wanted only to live in accord with the promptings which came from my true self. Why was that so very difficult?

I really enjoy books that make my brain melts and this book did just that. All the symbolism in this book made my brain think so much but I love it.

Essentially, this book is about finding oneself and what one wants to be. It’s about self-discovery and about the struggles and torments of youth.
