Hermann Hesses kortroman Brunnsgästen i nyöversättning och med efterord av Bengt Samuelson. Hermann Hesse kom till den pittoreska kurorten Baden i kantonen Aargau i Schweiz första gången i maj 1923. Han var fyrtiofem år gammal, nyskild med tre barn och väletablerad författare med sin definitiva genombrottsroman Siddhartha bakom sig. Nu var han på kurort för att vila upp sig – och hamnar en författare i en så speciell miljö så nog blir det en bok. Vistelsen i Baden blev en kort, kärnfull roman. Med sin vassa humor och träffsäkra personteckning har Brunnsgästen blivit en av Hesses mest personliga böcker. Verenahof var ett av de mest välrenommerade kurhotellen i Baden, vackert beläget vid en krök av floden Limmat. Den lilla staden på knappt tiotusen invånare åtnjöt ett gott rykte som hälsokurort ända sedan romersk tid genom sina ”Aquae Helvetiae”, ett tjugotal heta källor som finns beskrivna hos Tacitus. Verenabadet var ursprungligen ett medeltida gemensamhetsbad. Det något radioaktiva svavel­haltiga koksalt- och kalciumsulfatrika vattnet med en temperatur kring 48 grader var för Hesses reumatiska besvär den ideala läkekuren. Hesse måste rimligen tillhöra anläggningens mest känsliga och ömhudade gäster, både i bokstavlig och överförd bemärkelse. Han irriterar sig på det mesta, det minmala bullret i den annars nästan knäpptysta miljön, det frustrerande beteendet hos de troligen mycket beskedliga övriga brunnsgästerna – sådana komplikationer som en konstnärssjäl alltid måste uthärda och som ständigt leder till nya ifrågasättanden av vad hela livet går ut på. ”Livet är inte ett aritmetiskt problem eller en geometrisk figur, utan ett mirakel. Så har det varit under hela mitt liv: allt kom tillbaka, samma behov, samma önskningar och nöjen, samma frestelser, hela tiden slog jag huvudet i samma kant, stred mot samma drakar, jagade efter samma fjärilar, upprepade ständigt samma konstellationer och tillstånd, och ändå var det ett helt nytt spel, alltid vackert, alltid farligt, alltid spännande.” Hermann Hesse (1877–1962) tilldelades Nobelpriset i litteratur 1946. På Bakhåll har vi tidigare utgivit tre av Hesses romaner – Demian, Knulp och Gertrud – här är Brunnsgästen.

Hermann Hesses roman Österlandsfärden i nyöversättning och med efterord av Bengt Samuelson. Huvudpersonen i Hermann Hesses berättelse har initialerna H. H. Han är musiker ”och sagoförtäljare”. Han tillhör en orden, en hemlighetsfull sammanslutning som i århundraden sökt efter livets mening. Tillsammans med sina ordensbröder ger han sig ut på en vandring – målet är Österlandet. De vandrar genom tid och rum, genom fiktion och verklighet. Den hemlighetsfulla sammanslutningen är verkligen mycket hemlighestfull, så hemlighetsfull att deltagarna själva aldrig får riktigt klart för sig vart de är på väg eller hur långt de har kvar, inte heller kan de ha en uppfattning om hur många som anslutit sig, de vet inte ens om den som tycks vara ledare verkligen är det. Ändå är det viktigt för dem att fortsätta vandringen, allt görs i hopp om att det finns ett mål värt att sträva mot. Hesse var själv noga med att berättelsens gåtfullhet är avsiktlig, det förklarade han i ett brev till en kollega. Han menade att symboliken i romanen kommer att nå fram till läsaren utan att den behöver förklaras. Det handlar bara om att öppna sina sinnen, ta emot bilderna och sluka deras mening, vad de nu kan bjuda på av likheter med livet. Effekten kommer att inställa sig omedvetet. När boken skrevs var Hesse nykär. Efter två urspårade äktenskap hade han funnit kvinnan som skulle bli hans kärlekspartner för resten av livet, Nino Dolbin. Hon var konsthistoriker, expert på antiken, forskare, föreläsare, allmänkulturellt intresserad och intellektuell på Hesses vis. De gifte sig 1931, samma år som Österlandsfärden skrevs klar, och flyttade till den pampiga villa som döptes till Casa Hesse i Montagnola i Schweiz, med hänförande utsikt över Alperna. Hesse tilldelades Nobelpriset i litteratur 1946. På Bakhåll har vi tidigare utgivit fyra av hans romaner – Demian, Knulp, Gertrud och Brunnsgästen – nu kommer Österlandsfärden. Hermann Hesses kortroman Österlandsfärden. Översättning och efterord Bengt Samuelson. ISBN 978-91-7742-536-6. Högkvalitetspapper, sydda ark, klotband (=hårda pärmar med tygrygg). 96 sidor.

First published in 1922, 'Siddhartha' is an allegorical novel by Hermann Hesse, a German-Swiss novelist, poet, painter, and one of Germany's most influential writers and thinkers, who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1946. The central theme of his work is the individual's actions to break out of the established modes of civilization so as to find an essential spirit and identity. The book was written in German, in a simple, yet powerful and lyrical style. The story deals with the spiritual journey of an Indian boy called Siddhartha during the time of the Buddha. The word Siddhartha is made up of two words in the Sanskrit language, Siddha (achieved) + artha (what was searched for), which together means "He who has found meaning (of existence)". It is one of the great philosophical novels. A profoundly insightful and beautifully written story that begins as Siddhartha, son of an Indian Brahmin, leaves his family and begins a lifelong journey towards Enlightenment. On his way, Siddhartha soon becomes agitated and discards it for pleasures of the flesh. He is quickly bored and sickened by the unending lust and greed, moves on again. Near despair, he comes to a river where he hears a unique sound. This sound signals the true beginning of his life-the beginning of suffering, rejection, peace, and finally, wisdom. A beautiful account of the journey of a young man during the times of the great Gautama Buddha is not just an evocative piece of art but also a work of mystery offered to the reader to solve for himself.

Hermann Hesse's 'Journey to the East' tells of a journey both geographic and spiritual, in a simple and mesmerizing prose. H.H., a German choirmaster, is invited on an expedition with the League, a secret society whose members consist of Paul Klee, Mozart, and Albertus Magnus. The participants traverse both space and time, encountering Noah's Ark in Zurich and Don Quixote at Bremgarten. The pilgrims' ultimate destination is the East, the "Home of the Light," where they expect to find spiritual renewal. The harmony that ruled at the outset of the trip soon degenerates into open conflict. Each traveler finds the rest of the group intolerable and heads off in his own direction, with H.H. bitterly blaming the others for the failure of the journey. It is only long after the trip, while poring over records in the League archives, that H.H. discovers his own role in the dissolution of the group, and the ominous significance of the journey itself.

In a very simple prose, Hesse has conveyed a very profound message for all seekers. A brahmin boy follows his heart and goes through various lives to finally understand what it means to be enlightened. He experiences life as a pious brahmin, a Samana, a rich merchant, a lover and an ordinary ferryman, to a father. Neither a practitioner nor a devotee, neither meditating nor reciting, Siddhartha comes to blend in with the world, resonating with the rhythms of nature, bending the reader's ear down to hear answers from the river...

When it was published in 1919, this transitional novel received immediate critical and popular acclaim. A masterpiece in the history of 20th-century literature, it reflects the writer's distraction with the duality of human nature and the achievement of spiritual fulfillment.

Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha: An Indian Novel, published in 1922, is about a man named Siddhartha's spiritual quest of self-discovery during the time of the Gautama Buddha. It was Hesse's ninth book and was written in a straightforward, lyrical style in German. It was released in the United States in 1951, and it gained popularity in the 1960s. Hesse wrote it as a tribute to Wilhelm Gundert, his cousin, and to Romain Rolland in the first section. The Sanskrit words Siddha (achieved) and artha (what was sought after), which make up the name Siddhartha, collectively mean "he who has found meaning (of existence)" or "he who has achieved his objectives. Actually, the Buddha was known as Siddhartha Gautama when he was the prince of Kapilavastu. The story takes place in the historic kingdom of Kapilavastu in Nepal. Siddhartha makes the decision to forsake his house in the pursuit of enlightenment through asceticism as an animal roaming beggar. Together with his best friend Govinda, Siddhartha abstains from food, abandons his home, gives up all of his possessions, and engages in prolonged meditation before seeking out and speaking with Gautama, the renowned Buddha or Enlightened One.
