«Gertrudis» is the novel by Hermann Hesse published by Plaza & Janés in paperback, in Spanish.
The novel is presented as the memoirs of the composer Kuhn, who recalls his friendship with the tormented singer Heinrich Muoth and his love for Gertrudis Imthor. The bond between the three intertwines with the process of creating an opera, in a story that addresses love, friendship and the dedication that art demands.
Work originally published in 1910 as «Gertrud»; this Spanish edition, translated by Mariano Salvador Luque, appeared in 1989.
For readers of European classics and of Hermann Hesse's work who are looking for a story about music, love and friendship.
Hermann Karl Hesse was a German-Swiss poet and novelist, and winner of the 1946 Nobel Prize in Literature. His interest in Eastern religious, spiritual, and philosophical traditions, combined with his involvement with Jungian analysis, helped shape his literary work. His best-known novels include Demian, Steppenwolf, Siddhartha, Narcissus and Goldmund, and The Glass Bead Game, each of which explores an individual's search for authenticity, self-knowledge, and spirituality.
