      abstract = {Hermann Hesse's stories inspired nonconformity and a  yearning for universal values to supplant the political  fanaticism tearing Europe apart. Initially, critics thought  his work inaccessible to Americans, but the counterculture  of the 1960s--and subsequent generations of  admirers--emphatically proved the opposite. Gunnar Decker  weaves together previously unavailable sources to offer a  unique interpretation of the life and work of Hermann  Hesse. Drawing on newly discovered correspondence between  Hesse and his psychoanalyst Josef Lang, Decker shows how  Hesse reversed the traditional roles of therapist and  client, and rethinks the relationship between Hesse's  novels and Jungian psychoanalysis. Readers who can now  explore Hesse's correspondence with Thomas Mann and Stefan  Zweig--the latter recently unearthed--will come away with a  better understanding of the author's profound sense of  alienation from his contemporaries.--},
