Klein and Wagner Book by Hermann Hesse (Farsi)

Description

"Klein and Wagner" unfolds the gripping narrative of Friedrich Klein, a middle-aged clerk who flees to Italy after embezzling from his employer. However, Klein's transgressions are not those of a conventional criminal; instead, he is a tormented bourgeois in a quest for inner peace and self-fulfillment. Haunted by self-alienation and a dark compulsion to harm his own family, Klein's escape is an attempt to sever ties with his past. The name Wagner, associated with a notorious German schoolteacher who committed a similar crime, adds a layer of ominous symbolism to Klein's actions. Yet, Klein's flight does not bring the liberation he seeks. Instead, he grapples with the tormenting realization that his thoughts and actions are not entirely under his control. The specter of suicide looms large in Klein's reflections, highlighting the depths of his despair.
