Book Description
Hesse's novel of two medieval men, one quietly content with his religion and monastic life, the other in fervent search of more worldly salvation. This conflict between flesh and spirit, between emotional and contemplative man, was a life study for Hesse. It is a theme that transcends all time. The Hesse Phenomenon "has turned into a vogue, the vogue into a torrent. . .He has appealed both to. . . an underground and to an establishment. . .and to the disenchanted young sharing his contempt for our industrial civilization."--The New York Times Book Review
Customer Reviews:
A transient's mentality, dilemmas and possible arrivals.......2007-07-05
Hesse's account of how many of your inclinations get enamored by each other's possible arrival. A dilemma in each young thinker's mind taken as far as it went and presented as a story of a vagabond and an abbot is gripping and one which all us can identify with in one way or the other. A masterpiece !
Art, sex, death.......2007-02-09
This was one of my favorite novels in my late teens and early twenties. Ostensibly it is about two medieval seminary friends personifying opposite poles of being: Narcissus, the introspective priest, represents the orderly spiritual and intellectual realm of the father, of the church, and of philosophy and science, while his counterpart Goldmund arrives as an unconfident, confused and dissatisfied student compelled to rebel against the stifling monastery life into which he's been thrust so as to find himself alone in the secular world of art, imagination, and sensuality encompassed by Mother Nature. Like Hesse rereading this same novel after many years ("Events in the Engadine" (1953)) I dusted off and taped together my tattered paperback, underlined and asterisked in revealing passages, and slowly savored it over a recent fall month. Some of the writing seemed a bit overdone and even, "embarrassing", as T. Ziolkowski "The Novels of Hermann Hesse: A Study in Theme and Structure," Princeton U. Press (1965) comments, but I still enjoyed re-experiencing Goldmund's picaresque wanderings throughout the Black Death. He camps in the woods and stops in villages, meets fellow wanderers, drinks and socializes in taverns, finds work where he can, and discovers pleasure and temporary respite in his many encounters with women. Throughout his worldly adventures there is always danger and ignorance to be avoided.
Hesse's novels depict individuals at different stages of personal development and N&G picks up where Demian leaves off. A liberated Sinclair is transposed into Goldmund as he seeks out his "Mother Eva" once he's broken from the insular confines of the monastery. What I like most about this novel is the picaresque theme of seeking and personal redemption during times of chaos. To Hesse these redemptive forces are always art. Goldmund meets a master wood carver in a village and becomes his apprentice, eventually becoming a master sculptor himself. The passages where Goldmund is an artist and city-dweller are the most interesting to me, evoking similar scenes from "Steppenwolf" and "Siddhartha", as well as the short stories "Klingsor's Last Summer" and "Knulp". And even though the idyllic medieval setting is simply sketched as a conceptual backdrop, selected by Hesse due to its being a time in which the average European life was ordered around the church, and the ever-present threat of death, it creates space for the reader's imagination and curiosity to wander along with Goldmund.
Yet this time around I felt compelled to focus on Narcissus, hoping against my previous experiences with this novel for a fuller conception of his elusive, rather flatly drawn character, to discover something more profound. While I did re-encounter some descriptive snippets I'd not taken notice of before, especially an insightful dialogue towards the end on "thinking vs. imagining" (p. 277), ultimately, I came to the conclusion that Narcissus should remain the elusive spirit, seemingly devoid of the artistic attention Goldmund receives. Though I would have liked it if Hesse had written more about Narcissus's inner struggles with God and life within Mariabronn, perhaps going off on extended tangents about philosophy and Christianity or celibacy and homosexuality within the church (thus in all likelihood making Hesse enemy #1 to his book-burning countrymen in Nazi Germany, who burned this book anyway; not to mention the probable ire of his editors) but the fact is that Hesse originally conceived the idea of the novel around Goldmund, only later intending for Narcissus to have equal weight. The prototype for N&G can be found in an early, unfinished story called "Berthold" ("Tales of Student Life," Farrar, Straus & Giroux (1976)) in which the focal character of Berthold is essentially an earlier version of Goldmund. Nevertheless, Narcissus's importance is clear in that in the end it is his spiritual life that is the pole from which Goldmund departs and, eventually returns. In any event, a reader wanting more of Narcissus (and many of the philosophical "tangents" & wanderings I mentioned above) will find his reincarnation in Joseph Knecht in the transcendental "The Glass Bead Game". Ultimately, even though Hesse's attempt at a "Doppelroman", or "double-novel" representing two separate lives and realms equally, comes up short in a structural sense, the attempt is perhaps more interesting because of these flaws.
Quintessential Hesse.......2006-03-20
Hesse is widely loved for a number of things: the themes he addresses, the often unexpected light he casts on them, and the detail with which he develops his characters and their setting. His style, even when addressing weighty matters of substance, is simple and never resorts to O'Henry-style tricks. His stories are accessible to most literate people, never relying on technical or obscure language.
Narcissus and Goldmund is probably as good an example of mainstream Hesse as any of his books (at least, of the six or seven I have read over a period of decades). It lacks the exoticism of Steppenwolf and is more complex than several of his shorter works. Perhaps the book it most closely resembles is Siddhartha, since its questions and theme are developed through considering the interplay of spiritual and worldly calling.
In this volume, great principles and different modes of knowing are embodied in the two protagonists. I wept upon reading Goldmund's dying words to Narcissus, as he frames the ultimate question for his cherished friend. Hesse's work is about each one of us, pilgrims on our way to death's shrine.
His friend awakened him- the world and wandering molded him........2006-03-10
_This is the story of two very different young would-be monks in the medieval cloister of Mariabronn. Narcissus was a lunar type- introverted, a thinker and a scholar. On the other hand, Goldmund was a classic solar type- extroverted, a lover and an artist.
_Yet, these two beings of seemingly opposite temperaments became the deepest of life-long friends. This is because different strengths- and different weaknesses- complement each other. In this way two unbalanced natures may in strange alchemy fulfill each other. They may be able to see their shadow in the other- and their pivotal conflict.
_It was in this way that Narcissus saw his friend Goldmund's central repressed crisis. It was this shattering revelation that drove Goldmund out into the world beyond the sheltered cloister. It drove him to a life on the edge as a life-long wanderer. He started in a search for his nearly forgotten mother and ended by finding the eternal feminine in all women. Yet the years of hardship and horror (including murder, the Great Plague, and prison) took their toll on him. When after over a decade of wandering, he finally encountered his friend Narcissus again it saved his life- both literally and spiritually.
_I could not imagine a more Jungian novel. Nor could I imagine a better expression of the meaning of profound friendship.
Narcissus and Goldmund.......2006-01-16
I believe Hermann Hesse was in full form and at the height of his writing prowess when he wrote this ambitious novel.
The book is about two medieval friends. One is a romantic artist 'heart' type - the other, a analytical and upright 'mind' type. The two become friends in the deepest, most meaningful sense of the word. As in all truly bonded friendships - they are what each other needs. They are meant represent the two seemingly opposite, and irreconcilabe poles within the artistic temperment. This is also a story of love and suffering, acceptance and pain. It is a tale of romance and beauty, and being true to oneself in one's life/art calling. It is a book by an artist for the artist.
I love hermann Hesse. I have read almost all of his books (I am saving a few because I do not wish to run out of material too soon). I believe Narcissus and Goldmund stands up to his best work - The great 'five' if you will: Demian, Siddhartha, Steppenwolf, Narcissus and Goldmund, and The Glass Bead Game.
Simply put - if you like Hermann Hesse, you will like this book. It is insightful, tender, poetic, honest, melancholy, and like most works of art, it gives the reader a 'place' to go - an escape into the fantasy of the 'real' if you will.
The only problem one might have with this novel is that it is, at times, bit meandering, and also overtly spiritual/psychological in nature. I say 'one' because this is precisely what I love about Hesse. So please take my criticism with a grain of salt.
I hope this review has helped the reader. I also trust that you will drink in and enjoy the secret, and magical beauty of Narcissus and Goldmund.
Book Description
Narcissus and Goldmund is the story of a passionate yet uneasy friendship between two men of opposite character. Narcissus, an ascetic instructor at a cloister school, has devoted himself solely to scholarly and spiritual pursuits. One of his students is the sensual, restless Goldmund, who is immediately drawn to his teacher’s fierce intellect and sense of discipline. When Narcissus persuades the young student that he is not meant for a life of self-denial, Goldmund sets off in pursuit of aesthetic and physical pleasures, a path that leads him to a final, unexpected reunion with Narcissus.

Narcissus and Goldmund.......2007-04-12
I felt a sense of loss after finishing this novel. Not as I read its last pages and not as I closed it, but days later, when I thought to myself that for a week, it had been sustaining something in me--something introspective and romantic and idealistic. The novel traces Goldmund's development from youth to a premature old age. However otherworldly and idealistic the boy's thoughts sometimes seem, they are always deeply sincere, and the respectful tone he has for everything around him carries over into the reader's own attitude toward life. Next to Steppenwolf, which is beautifully darker and more solitary, Narcissus and Goldmund is fast becoming my favorite among Hesse's works. It is a novel which will be remembered fondly, and it is so complete and fulfilling that readers might be left with a sense of aimlessness after it is done. In the end, perhaps only novels which leave one with this feeling are truly worth the read.
Perhaps Hesse's greatest novel. It's certainly my favorite........2006-12-12
I actually don't read a lot of fiction, but when I do I try to read very high quality material with a lot of depth, complexity and a story that reflects life as it is really lived with all of the uncertainties, difficult emotions, paradoxes, etc. This book succeeds on all accounts and is top notch in every way e.g. round characters, carefully developed plot and engaging interwoven themes that anyone can relate to.
This story deals with the struggle between the intellect and flesh. This personified by the two main characters. One is of a more artistic temperment and the other is a very disciplined type. The two are in search for truth and meaning, but they approach their search differently although they both start out life the same as monks.
In the end, as in real life I don't think the dilemma is resolved or completely understood. However, it is clear that both paths seem to lead to similar realizations. On one hand, the disciplined, intellectual approach to reality and on the other the more meandering, open and free-spirited path of direct experience guided by intuition.
There are many other reviewers who have written more detail about the plot, specifics and other details, so I won't repeat what they have said. What I would like to add is that this book shines a light on the important existential questions we all have and does it in a very powerful and moving way.

An incredibly moving tale unlike any other.......2006-03-21
This is one of the most captivating and beautifully written novels in history. Hermann Hesse is a fascinating story teller and vividly romantic poet. Deep introspection, hilarious laughter, pensiveness, tears, and spiritual elevation are all experienced within the pages of this incredible and unmatched journey. Worth every minute... you won't waste a moment once you turn the first few pages. An amazing read!
Narcissus and Goldmund.......2006-01-19
Do yourself a favor and read this book - especially if you have enjoyed any of Hesse's other wonderful works of art.
If you care about life, mystery, dreams, artistic endeavors, love, and truth: read this novel and drink in it's secret and magical beauty.
Who knows? You might just be one of the one's who 'get it'.
And this my friend, is no small prize for those delvers into the inner reaches of the soul.

Masterpiece.......2004-09-07
Herman Hesse's Narcissus and Goldmund is by far his best work. It's a beautiful piece of art. I fell in love with Goldmund more so than I did with Demian. This book was a life changing experience for me. I laughed and cried and fell in love. I highly recommend this masterpiece.
Absolute must-read.......1999-12-08
Hesse has completed a novel that everyone should read. This story is so compelling, so universal, that I instantly wanted to be more like Goldmund. I recommend this book to anyone wanting to feel a philosophical change in their lives.
one of the most sublimely fabulous books ever written.......1999-06-02
hesse was a genius. narcissus and goldmund is beautifully written, even after its translation to english. the writing and the story are compelling; i simply could not put it down and it was finished in three days. it is mesmerising, heartbreaking, philosophical, and most of all, it shows humans as they truly are. i cannot say enough about how much i loved this book; even if you don't like it at first, stick with it through the end; it is well worth it. it is a celebration of humanity in the highest. a must read for all heads.
Over-rated twaddle.......1999-05-27
This is Hesse at his most sentimental and naive. He explores both sides of his personality and both are inadequate. Coming back to the book after a break of thirty years, I wondered how I could I have been sdeuced by so much tosh. "Ah but I was so much younger then, I'm younger than that now."

My Favorite Christie.......2007-04-10
Of all the Agatha Christie books I've read, this is my very favorite. It is the most beautifully written of all her mysteries, and the story is tragic and beautiful. Elinor Carlisle is on trial for the murder of her deceased aunt's ward, Mary. She is the ideal suspect because she was in love with Roddy ? (forgot his last name) who fell in love with Mary when he met her, though he was engaged to Elinor. And Hercule Poirot is appointed by this doctor who loves Elinor to try and get Elinor not convicted. The end is truly surprising and there is pretty much NO WAY you can find out who the true killer is unless you look in the back of the book. The way Christie tells this story is just truly amazing. And the poem in the beginning by Shakespeare makes everything even better. I really can't describe this book with justice. It's just beautiful, truly tragic and beautiful. I cried.
A Little Known Christie Classic!.......2004-07-27
This book is one of Christie's less well-known ones. I know that I had not read it until now, and I thought I had gotten through all of Agatha Christie's Poirot books. But it is a wonderful mystery story, and written in the true Christie fashion. There are more twists and turns in a seemingly simple murder case than a small country road. This book starts with the premise that only one person could possibly have killed the young girl, and Hercule Poirot is brought in to at the very least, not have the murderer's sentence extend to capital punishment. But in true Hercule Poirot fashion, he finds out that even though it looks like only one person could have done it, there were in fact more options than that. As I reread some of the Agatha Christie classics, I am overwhelmed by her craftsmanship. She is the true queen of crime, and no one has taken over that mantel yet.
Decidedly a neglected classic; amongst Christie's best........2004-07-05
Sure, there is always Ten Little Indians (also the best!!!) and Cards on the Table. But this one is very neatly plotted that - as it was with every other Christie - you can never expect what will surface just as soon as you thought you had it all figured out. Here, although the great Dame herself claimed would not revert to using Freudian complexes, she used a few here, perhaps unintentionally. And when the end of book one, you can't help but thinking that only one person can commit the murder under those given circumstances. Read it!
she did a good job...again.......2004-05-03
Before i read this book,little i know that this book could be a fast moving mystery book.the book is about a mystery surrounding one family of a poor woman who has been convicted with murder.but for the obvious reason(whodunnit),she is the most unlikely person to kill the victim...and the story goes on how hercule poirot investigates the murder to assist an innocent party....this book must be put on your upper shelf!!!
A poisoned love triangle.......2004-05-02
This 1939 novel has been compared to the 1930 STRONG POISON by Dorothy Sayers. Both novels begin with the courtroom observations of a young woman accused of murder by poisoning. Both young women are befriended by a young man who sets out to clear her of the crime and fall in love with her in the process. Christie's rescuer is named Peter Lord while Sayers' is, of course, Lord Peter. Even with these similarities the two stories, although both excellent, are vastly different.
Elinor Carlisle had an understanding with her cousin-by-marriage Roderick Welman, that one day they would wed, live happily in their mutual Aunt Laura's country house with her considerable fortune somehow split between them. The plan suited them all, Elinor, Roddy and Aunt Laura. Aunt Laura was now in failing health and was being cared for by nurses, her servants, a doctor and Mary, a young woman who had grown up on the estate and of whom Aunt Laura had always been quite fond...perhaps too fond for Elinor and Roddy's own good.
Aunt Laura died, not to anyone's surprise but had left no will, much to everyone's surprise. As her only living blood relative Elinor inherited everything - lucky Elinor! Except Mary was so lovely, and Roddy so smitten with her that the engagement was called off. Then Mary died, of poison and Elinor was the only one of could have committed the crime.
Dr. Lord made an impassioned plea to Hercule Poirot to prove Elinor innocent - if she was in fact innocent. Poirot reluctantly agrees and begins to sort through motives, love affairs and long buried secrets to arrive at the truth.
The opening is dramatic altough it causes the problem of making the most sympathetic character, Mary, known to the read as the victim. The questions remain, however, of who did it, why, and how for the reader to try to puzzle through before Poirot reveals all.
Book Description
Elinor Carlisle is accused of killing two people in a jealous rage to secure the wavering affections of her distant cousin and fiancé Welman. Hired to investigate, Hercule Poirot discovers that the evidence overwhelmingly fingers Elinor. When he finds himself agreeing she is the murderer, the skeptical sleuth characteristically looks for reasons why she must be innocent. Assumed identities, an exhumed body, a possible killer nurse, morphine, and a riveting courtroom setting make this a favorite among Christie-ites. David Duchet reads this exciting whodunit with panache.

SUPERB READING OF AN ABSORBING STORY.......2002-08-05
"Sad Cypress" is often referred to as one of the most outstanding of Christie's classic titles. To my mind, that's a bit like trying to say which flawless diamond shines the brightest. Nonetheless, this absorbing story is set in an English country house.
As for Hercule Poirot - who else but David Suchet? He is acclaimed by many as the quintessential Poirot. Those who have seen his PBS performances will readily agree. His voice treatment of this tale brings to vivid reality all the nuances and eccentricities of the characters involved.
"Sad Cypress" presents Elinor Carlisle as a woman blessed with beauty and brains reinforced by wealth - she also finds herself on trial for murder. She stands accused of killing her rival, Mary Gerrard, by poison. Poirot is the only one who believes in her innocence. He needs to prove she is not guilty or Elinor will be hung.
As with other Christie mysteries clues are liberally sprinkled throughout the tale. What fun to try to find them!
