I normally love Hesse, but this collection left me cold. I almost fell asleep in the bathtub where I was reading. These stories struck me as trite and preachy.

Excellent short story collection.

This was more pleasant than man other books of Hesse's. Stories were a bit odd and interesting and fanciful and lighter than some of his other stuff.
