About this book

In Hermann Hesse’s brief, enigmatic novel, a traveller recalls joining a timeless spiritual fellowship on a journey eastward, only to lose faith when the servant Leo disappears and the expedition seems to collapse. Years later, the narrator searches for the meaning of that failure. Part pilgrimage, part allegory and part reflection on storytelling, The Journey to the East belongs to Hesse’s lifelong exploration of inward development, community and the difficult movement from isolated selfhood towards a larger whole. Originally written in German as “Die Morgenlandfahrt”, the work appears here in an Arabic translation by Mamdouh Adwan.
