terrible reading

The narrator mispronounced many words and read in a monotone. I regret spending my time on this instead of reading the book myself.

The Dream like Quality of the Story

It seemed to me that the author was writing about his experience of writing his masterpiece Siddhartha. Knowing that he had severe writer's block and almost did not finish the book made it seem so in my opinion.

Herman Hesse is one of my favorite.

Herman Hesse is one of my favorite. He didn’t disappoint with this one as well.

Immature male reader. Like a teenager killing a precious art object

Impossible to listen to.
