ericfheiman 's review for:

The Glass Bead Game by Hermann Hesse
3.0

A one-star novel wrapped in a four-to-five star philosophy textbook. (Or does the novel wrap the philosophy textbook?) This may have blown my mind as a younger lad, but Hesse's lessons and questions here feel familiar to, and already absorbed by, this middle-ager.
