Being one of Hesse's earlier works, it's a tad on the nose and not necessarily as refined or . Still, I love how heartfelt and sincere it is, as a near autobiographical coming-of-age story.
As kids, haven't we all once felt as if the cruel and restrictive society has quashed the Personification of Romanticism? And what use is there of living in a world that has no place for Romanticism! We might as well be dead!
It's adorably melodramatic <3 <3
