A child's heart.--Klein und Wagner.--Klingsor's last summer.
The expressionist painter Klingsor is a self-portrait of the Hesse of 1919. Hesse won the Nobel Prize in 1946. During the 1960s Hesse became a favorite writer of the counter culture, especially in the United States, though his critical reputation has never equaled his popularity. Hermann Hesse died in 1962.
