This is the novel from Hesse which I liked most. The introspection of the young soul was very interesting. I liked also the classical approach of the writing without the use of first person narrator.
Indeed the story is sad, but not unusual. You just need to open any news channel and you can find more tragedies than the destiny of Hans Giebenrath.
