Narcissus and Goldmund is his very best. What..more

Narziß und Goldmund = Death and the Lover = Narcissus and Goldmund, Hermann Hesse
Narcissus and Goldmund (German: Narziß und Goldmund; also published as Death and the Lover) is a novel written by the German–Swiss author Hermann Hesse which was first published in 1930. At its publication, Narcissus and Goldmund was considered Hesse's literary triumph; chronologically, it follows Steppenwolf. Narcissus and Goldmund is the story of a young man, Goldmund, who wanders aimlessly throughout Medieval Ger..more

Narcissus and Goldmund tells the narrative of two men (although Goldmund gets a bigger chunk of the story), each seeking a higher fulfillment in his own way. The novel chronicles the life of an aimless wanderer breaking free, and one strongly binded to faith living in the Mariabronn monastery. The novel is both a journey and an awakening that takes the reader over the course of many decades. Living in a hidden cloister in medieval Germany, Narcissus is a most learned and pious young acolyte purs..more

Can I just say that I absolutely love Hermann Hesse. For me his words speak directly to my soul. I have never exclusively followed an author except Hesse. He is absolutely brilliant and his works are so nuanced to the point where they only mean anything to the reader unless they can relate in some profound way. I have now finished all of his major works and I must say 'bravo'.
All of his books are about the turmoil and duality of the human soul. He speaks my language. My next goal is to learn Ge..more

Narcissus and Goldmund, as I look back on it now in my old age - far from my youthful love for it - is one of Hesse’s near-misses. Close, but no cigar, as they used to say at the Fair.
This novel could have been perfect. But no - it misses the boat. At least to someone older and wiser.. Why? To find that out, let’s go back to the medieval era, in which this book is set.. There once was an ‘almost-Narcissus’ back then. His name was Desiderius Erasmus. Half-secretively a Catholic man of the world,..more

This is not a review. This is an expression of gratitude.
Enlightened does not begin to describe the feeling one gets when eyes see, mind is set in motion, and images are processed into thoughts that seed the way we look at everything. We SEE everything in a new light, at least for as long as we remember what is important, what makes a difference. The beginning of our true life. I suppose all we can ask of our mind is for a few moments of enlightenment at a time. And, to remember. Too much would..more

Philosophical? Definitely. Novel Entertainment? oh yes. What the author meant by this writing? Well, like any true art- that depends on the audience. I can go into all the philosophical existential yakkity yak that a lot of other people might get from Narcissus and Goldmund, but instead I'm gonna give you the nuts and bolts (ie pared down yakkity yak) of what I saw in it.

If you have a penchant for poetic language, a love for new experiences, and a sensitivity to life's struggles, you will find hope and deep beauty in this story. I recommend finding a place of solitude and spiritual transcendence before delving into this as you will inevitably flip back to the beginning once finished and have to read it again.

The book is spectacular and extremely thought provoking. Out of all, probably the following paragraph left the adequate impression.

Either one was a man or one was a woman, either a wanderer or a sedentary burgher, either a thinking person or a feeling person – no one could breathe in at the same time as he breathed out, be a man as well as a woman, experience freedom as well as order, combine instinct and mind.

This beautifully written philosophical novel, that like most of Hesse’s work explores the theme of individual search for self-realization, was a genuine pleasure to read as well as to reflect on later on. It is one of those books that stays with you. I read it ages ago, but I can remember it without making any mental effort whatsoever. It stayed in my heart and in my mind. The language used is fairly simple, but beautiful nevertheless and powerful in the messages it delivers. The story is quite..more

Goldmund could not fit into the Mariabronn Monastery anymore than a square peg could fit into a round hole and soon left the cloister for the vagrant life. By sleeping in the woods, killing Viktor the thief, meeting the plague, studying under Meister Niklaus and romancing with Lydia and Julie, Lene and Agnes, he explored the sensual life as an artist. When Agnes rejected the old man that he was, he returned to the monastery to meet his friend and mentor Narziss before leaving the world.

Perhaps this book is interesting as an example of the dichotomization of body/mind, angel/whore, ascete/wayfarer. Put the dicktalk aside (which is no small task here) and you still have an enormous vine from which to swing back and forth from pole to pole. At best woman is subject here, at worst she so thoroughly blends into the background she's invisible. More than bleak considering this is a meditation on the roles of the artist and thinker (and never the twain shall meet mind you) in a modern..more

I see this book as a meditation on the beauty and the power of Art. Any flaws that appear in the narrative therefore I find to be irrelevant. I think that I don't even experience Narcissus and Goldmund as a novel. It's more philosophical in nature, more a novel of ideas, more like reading a religious text than anything else, and that is the beauty of it.. or at least that is what I have found in it.

I was disappointed by this book. I expected a thoughtful meditation on the appetites of a young man; instead, this is a travel story with a lot of sex. Nothing about either title character is explained in the literary sense: each of them just is, and events fit their personalities. Thus, Goldmund wanders around and gets laid a lot. This got old fast, and if it wasn't for the section that deals with the Black Death, I might have given up on the book. Feb 26, 2018Czarny Pies rated it it was ok · review of another edition

Recommends it for: Feminists looking for evidence that men are jerks.
In this novel, Herman Hesse presents Nietzsche's thesis from the Birth of Tragedy that man has an Apollonian and Dionysian side to his nature. Women in contrast are purely sexual.
Do not waste your time with this novel if you have not read the Birth of Tragedy. Women should avoid this book unless they take a pleasure in getting angry with male chauvinists.

This is one of those classic books that is very difficult to review and do it justice because there are so many ideas contained within the book. It is a coming-of-age story, a commentary on existential philosophy and a beautiful description of a life long friendship.

Narcissus is a very talented scholar and it is evident that he will one day serve the church and even become the Abbot of..more

I settled on Kerouac's 'On The Road', a book I have read several times and reviewed some time ago.

Baffling and disappointing. The story seemed to be setting up beautifully for nothing but pure gold early on. The problems emerge when the reader senses the majority of the story's weight is squarely placed on the shoulders of a protagonist who is woefully misguided in virtually all of his views and interactions with others. Goldmund can do no wrong. He is great at everything. Everyone loves him. He is a wanderer (self-inflicted, no one forced him onto the aimless road to nowhere) who is acutely..more
