Knulp

Hermann Hesse

(suggested by David)

Knulp is a poignant and lyrical novella centered on the life of a wandering vagabond in pre-World War I Germany.

The narrative unfolds as a portrait of a man who defies convention in favor of freedom and transience. Part folk tale, part philosophical meditation, Knulp blends introspection and poetic realism, examining what it means to live on society’s margins with dignity, charm, and a quiet yearning for belonging.

Please arrive at 18:10 for a 18:15 start sharp, so we can squeeze the most discussion out of the session :)

We will wrap up around 19:40 as the library needs us out by 19:45

There will then be an option to go for a drink at a nearby pub if anyone is interested.
