About This Item
New York:: Farrar, Straus, & Giroux,, 1972.. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine price-clipped dust jacket. This is a collection of short autobiographical pieces that Hesse wrote over the course of his long life. In fact they are more like fragments, discontinuous and in some places covering the same ground, but from different angles. The introduction makes it clear that Hesse wrote his own life into all of his stories, using elaborate aliases, shifting scenes and generally mixing up the whole business of story-telling and magic making in a very complex whole.
