Steppenwolf
Hermann Hesse
Read by Ben Tucker
This controversial literary classic paints the portrait of a man who perceives himself to live in two worlds, that of the idealist, cowed and comfortable living amongst the bourgeoisie, and that of the steppenwolf, a wild and untrammelled soul at odds with the world around it which leads him to severe disfunction and thoughts of suicide. Through a surreal journey into dance halls, bed chambers and endless corridors of alternate realities, he comes to understand the world better and his place in it. (Summary by Ben Tucker)
