Publisher's Review
The 'Sinclair' of 1919 is back!

Demian is a novel published by Hermann Hesse in 1919 under the pseudonym 'Emil Sinclair'.
Hermann Hesse, who was recognized as a great writer in the literary world at the time, wanted to see if his novels would be recognized solely for their artistic value, and the result was successful.
Since then, many people have been curious about the unknown writer 'Emil Sinclair'.
Hermann Hesse revealed that he was 'Emil Sinclair' and changed his author name to Hermann Hesse in 1920.
The Black Velvet Edition of the first edition of 『Demian』 published by The Story Publishing Company follows the cover design of the 1919 first edition published by Hermann Hesse under the name of 'Emil Sinclair'.

A classic coming-of-age novel that caused a sensation in the 20th century

『Demian』 is a work that serves as a second starting point for Hermann Hesse, who vowed to start anew after the end of World War I.
It contains the agony of youth and the duality of humanity, and meticulously depicts the soul that confronts reality while pursuing an inner path and making self-discovery the goal of life.
Hermann Hesse hoped that through Demian, a journey to find oneself and a record of intense growth, countless 'Emil Sinclairs' around the world would realize the fundamental power of life.
And only then was I sure I would hear the voice of destiny calling from within.
