Hermann Hesse's 'Singapore Dream' takes readers on a captivating journey to the East Indies through the lens of the acclaimed author's journal entries and writings. This collection, translated into Farsi for the first time, chronicles Hesse's 1911 voyage through the enchanting landscapes of southeastern Asia, a pivotal experience that left an indelible mark on his literary legacy. Amidst the unfamiliarity of the foreign flora, inscrutable Chinese inscriptions, and interactions with locals, Hesse describes a profound sense of belonging and connection to the natural rhythms of life's clear river. Throughout the narrative, Hesse's unique perspective unfolds scenes of rickshaw adventures, captivating foreign theater performances, explorations of floating cities on stilts, and moments of serene appreciation for the lush landscapes. Even in the challenges of travel, Hesse's entries are infused with faithful humor, wit, and keen observation, providing readers with a rich portrayal of early 20th-century travel.
