Steppenwolf (Stepnoy Volk)

'Steppenwolf' is one of the most important novels of the 20th century, first published in 1927. It is both a philosophical parable and a profound study of the psychology of a person vainly trying to find and find his own 'I', constantly balancing on the cusp of animal and human principles.
This is a love story that leads to an unexpected tragic denouement, it is also a political and social novel in which the hero acts as a fierce critic of the existing philistinism.
You dive into this book headfirst, it captivates you with its special rhythm, its inimitable atmosphere of half-sleep-half-waking, half-reality-half-madness, jazz rhythms, carnival masks, literary allusions and amazing discoveries that the protagonist makes on the path to self-awareness.
