Description

Unterm Rad is the story of Hans Giebenrath, a talented boy sent to a seminary in Maulbronn. His education is focused completely on increasing his knowledge, and neglects personal development. His close friendship with Hermann Heilner, a more liberal fellow student, is a source of comfort for Hans.

Author

Hermann Hesse (1877–1962) was a German-Swiss poet and novelist who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1946. His books explore the inward journey — the search for authenticity, spiritual balance, and self-knowledge beyond social convention. Siddhartha, Demian, and Steppenwolf made him a guiding voice for generations of readers across Europe and America. Hesse writes with lyrical simplicity about the hardest question: how to become oneself.
