Description
"It was destiny that gave me that fabulous adventure. I participated in that unique journey, whose miraculous incidents shone like meteors. Today I want to try the short and concise description of that incredible odyssey." Novelist and poet, Hermann Hesse (1877-1962), based his work on the search for individual spirituality and felt throughout his life a great attraction to Buddhism and India. In 1946 he received the Nobel Prize for literature.
