But this site has plenty of direction-brained intellectuals who've neglected genuine connection in favor of quiet fuming. It's not about age, Harry's age even seems to go up and down throughout the book.

Steppenwolf is absolutely about age. Hesse complained that it was misunderstood by those too young to read it.

Saying that Steppenwolf is about any one or two things misses one of the major points of the novel.
- Any shit from Kafka, especially the bug one and the Trial (selfinsert)
- Hesse Steppenwolf/Siddhartha (selfinsert)
- Hegel Phänomolgie des Geistes (meme)
- Kant Kritik der reinen Vernunft (meme)
- and sometimes Schoppenhauers works but nothing specific because nobody here ever read any of his books (meme)
Nietzsche is like half the catalogue at any given point. Goethe, Schiller, Mann.

Nietzsche is a homosexual and Goethe and Shiller are classics they dont even need to be mentioned. Mann has only 1 good book and that book is never mentioned here
Damn was Harry Potter actually an esoteric reinterpretation of/response to Steppenwolf in the context of an authentic thaumaturgical practice? The destruction of Voldemort's horcruxes constituting a reversal of the splintering of the self, culminating in the integration of the shadow in Harry's final confrontation with Voldemort? IQfy filtered and BTFO yet again, bravo Rowling.
>somebody who understands Steppenwolf
Holy shit, fancy meeting you here!
Is this book not popular here? Seems like it captures the archetypal IQfyner pretty well

I like it when he first meets her and he instantly submits to her and does everything mommy tells him to do, he's literally me
Right when he is about to rope. That part was the most enjoyable fantasy and read
Name 54,320 (fifty-four thousand three hundred twenty) authors who don't self-insert.
