Steppenwolf
A new translation by David Horrocks. At first sight Harry Haller seems like a respectable, educated man. In reality he is the Steppenwolf: wild, strange, alienated from society and repulsed by the modern age. But as he is drawn into a series of dreamlike and sometimes savage encounters - accompanied by, among others, Mozart, Goethe and the bewitching Hermione - the misanthropic Haller discovers a higher truth, and the possibility of happiness. This haunting portrayal of a man who feels he is half-human and half-wolf became a counterculture classic for a disaffected generation. Yet it is also a story of redemption, and an intricately-structured modernist masterpiece. This is the first new translation of Steppenwolf for over eighty years, returning to the fresh, authentic language of Hesse's original.- Shop: buecher

Not only was she happily married at the time to Paulette's step-brother, she was also very, very straight. Females having sex together simply repulsed her and she didn't want any part of being a queer. Paulette however, persisted. She wouldn't take no for an answer. Because her husband was out of town on business, Cindi was alone when Paulette dropped by unexpectedly on a cold rainy night. She'd obviously been drinking and made no bones about what she wanted from the lady alone. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jackie Marie.
