And why did they commit suicide afterwards? Four men who have never met and seem to have nothing in common have all dreamed the same thing: a recurring nightmare dominated by a terrifying figure. Then, all of them are found dead. The police soon discover that the victims shared two significant facts: they had recently stayed at an old and mysterious hotel in the Adirondack Mountains and attended therapy sessions with the same hypnotist. David Gurney must hurry to solve this series of impossible questions, which will baffle both his mind and his heart. An intelligent and dizzying plot, with masterful twists.

Él mismo se describe como un lobo estepario, ya que se siente fuera del mundo burgués que lo rodea: un mundo que odia y desprecia pero que, a la vez, no puede abandonar.  Por eso alquila una habitación en la pensión de una señora mayor y trata de convivir con inquilinas que cuidan sus plantas con esmero y hombres responsables que cumplen religiosamente su horario de trabajo. Pero ese orden lo ahoga y una fuerza oscura lo obliga a salir y emprender la búsqueda incansable de una vida más auténtica e intensa. Al narrar sus peripecias, en un intento de superar \"la gran enfermedad de estos tiempos\", Harry Haller da una lección magistral sobre la libertad, los conflictos y el poder salvador del humor.  En todas las épocas hay personas demasiado sensibles, que sufren su soledad y se sienten arrancadas de toda protección e inocencia. Hermann Hesse crea un viaje fascinante, embriagador, a través de este aspecto tormentoso de muchos seres humanos, que se ha vuelto más actual que nunca.

Siguió profesiones tan dispares como  la de religioso y la de mecánico, pero con la publicación de su primera  novela, Peter Camenzind (1904) logró establecerse como escritor. Su obra  literaria lo colocó entre los autores más importantes del siglo XX. Sus  títulos más destacados son: Demian (1919), Siddhartha (1922), El lobo  estepario (1927) y El juego de abalorios (1943). Entre muchas otras  distinciones, recibió en 1946 el premio Nobel de Literatura.
