Hello, today I have brought you [Knulp], an early masterpiece by German poet and novelist Hermann Hesse. This novel, published in 1915, is about Knulp, a wanderer who rejects the ordinary life of work and marriage and freely wanders the world, writing poetry and singing. Knulp, like many of the protagonists in Hesse's early works, is an alter ego of Hermann Hesse, a character who loves nature, writes poetry, and wanders around. Knulp, whom Hesse loved the most during his lifetime, is the only character in Hesse's works to have a statue erected, so much so that when Hesse visited his hometown of Calw with his son after a long time, he felt like Knulp was alive everywhere on the streets.
