A young man awakens to selfhood and to a world of possibilities beyond the conventions of his upbringing in Nobel Prize winner Hermann Hesse’s beloved novel Demian. Emil Sinclair is a quiet boy drawn into a forbidden yet seductive realm of petty crime and defiance. His guide is his precocious, mysterious classmate Max Demian, who provokes in Emil a search for self-discovery and spiritual fulfillment. A brilliant psychological portrait, Demian is given new life in this translation, which together with James Franco’s personal and inspiring foreword will bring a new generation to Hesse’s widely influential coming-of-age novel.

*Tú sólo no puedes. Con amigos si*. Que dicía isto? Os teleñecos?

4 stars

Aínda que por veces me perdía nesa viaxe de descubrimento persoal, de coñecemento de si mesmo, creo que o libro ten unha resolución moi bonita e poética que paga a pena por si soa.

O relato apela a seguir a forza interior que nos move, a coñecela e a diferenciala sen prexuizos alonxándose da comodidade de pertencer á masa, de diluírnos (espiritualmente) nela. O protagonista, con moitas vicisitudes e a guía de sensibilidades afíns logra percorrer o camiño.
