Klingsors letzter Sommer by Hermann Hesse
"Klingsors letzter Sommer" by Hermann Hesse is an expressionistic artist's tale written in summer 1919. The story follows painter Klingsor through his final months as he senses approaching death. He paints feverishly in vivid colors, wanders through southern landscapes, and spends nights drinking wine in grottos. Between creative euphoria and melancholy, he struggles with fleeting love affairs, artistic obsession, and existential questions. As a fortune-teller predicts a disturbing future, Klingsor's desperate hunger
for life intensifies while he contemplates the meaning of his relentless creative drive. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
