誰しも共感出来る部分があるはず。果敢な少年時代を、当時の時代背景から来る厳しさを交えて綴る。時代は変われど、ギイベンラアト少年の苦悩は現代人の抱くそれと何ら変わりはない。彼の生涯は悩み多き私の理想を描き導く。 ( )

He uses a concise style and manages to create so much meaning with so few words ( )

Everyone has a book that changes them; for me this was it. I read it first as an early teen and it was exactly what I needed-- very simple but spot-on (both unusual and essential in fairy tales).

It isn't like Hesse's novels, so if you go in expecting something like that it will be disappointing. Also, this translation is a little clumsy. ( )

I normally love Hesse, but this collection left me cold. I almost fell asleep in the bathtub where I was reading. These stories struck me as trite and preachy. ( )
