★ Kyobo Bookstore Limited Recover Edition!
This special edition of The Joy of Enduring Life, a collection of essays by Hermann Hesse—the luminous recluse who transformed his solitude and suffering into art—features a new cover that evokes the autumn landscapes that once met Hesse’s gaze. It invites readers into the world as seen through his eyes. Life Pattern Korea.
Hesse, awarded both the Nobel Prize in Literature and the Goethe Prize in 1946, was revered as a writer but often vilified by his fellow Germans for opposing the war. Privately, he endured deep personal struggles: his wife’s mental illness, his own lifelong sensitivity and frequent battles with suicidal impulses. Life Pattern Korea.
Yet, Hesse never lost his childlike wonder. He continued to feel the world deeply and to turn both pain and joy into art—whether through essays, poetry, fairy tales, or visual works. His writings continue to resonate, offering solace to readers even today. Life Pattern Korea.
Renowned psychologist Carl Gustav Jung once described Hesse’s writing as “a beacon in the stormy night.” And indeed, in these essays filled with flickers of hope and insight amidst sorrow, Hesse becomes that very lighthouse—guiding us through life’s darkness. Through this book, readers are reminded of the profound grace in simply being, and the joy that can be found even in endurance. Life Pattern Korea.
