About this book

Emil Sinclair recalls a childhood divided between the secure ‘world of light’ and the forbidden realm of desire, fear and rebellion. His encounters with the enigmatic Max Demian lead him away from inherited morality towards a difficult discovery of the self. Hermann Hesse’s celebrated coming-of-age novel draws on psychoanalysis, myth and spiritual symbolism to explore individuation: the painful process of becoming answerable to one’s own inner life. Originally written in German as “Demian”, the work appears here in an Arabic translation by Mamdouh Adwan.
