Demian, in my own words, May 25 2000
This review is from: Siddhartha, Demian, and Other Writings: Hermann Hesse (Paperback)
I feel that the novel Demian was a highly intellectual novel and very enlightening! It's like no other book I've read in which it's not your usual story of a boy growing up. It's about a boy growing up and questioning his faith with the help of a boy named Demian who is a classmate. Emil, the main character feels that Demian is the image in which he wants to be. He fantisizes about this image and will do anything to be it. Demian helps Emil to break from his contious mind and enter his subconcious. It is a wonderful book and I highly recommend in to any philosophy fans, or anybody at all.
