A review by tina_yao
Klingsor's Last Summer by Hermann Hesse

slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.0

A beautifully written book that nonetheless falls into the Orientalist trap… The depiction of “dark-skinned women” gives me pause.
