The three stories in the book follow Knulp, a vagabond who from a young age chooses, after a romantic disappointment, a wandering and rootless life. His encounters in a small Swabian town at the beginning of the twentieth century allow Hermann Hesse to explore individuality, freedom, friendship and the search for an authentic existence.
Originally published in 1915, this 1993 edition translates into Italian the original Knulp: drei Geschichten aus dem Leben Knulps.

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.
