Thanks! The Glass Bead Game is good - if a bit ... slow. My favourite Hesse is still Siddhartha (though Demian is really good, too). Give it a read and let me know what you think!
The thought comes from Peter Camenzind, but it seems like the theme of Gertrud. I loved Hesse’s books, Especially Siddhartha, Beneath the Wheel, and Journey to the East.
Are you familiar with the movie “Zachariah,” the rock music comedy western based on Siddhartha, written by the Firesign Theater? Highly recommend!
Nice one Bryan. I have owned a copy of The Glass Bead Game for over ten years and never read it. I believe its time to dust that one off.

I'm not familiar with Zachariah - but I will definitely be checking it out. Rock music comedy western - you've sold me on it! Thanks!
An amazing cast for its time, too.
That video is fascinating!
I thought it was rather cool!
