The film isn't half bad either. But among the books of Hesse my favorite -- indeed the favorite of many mathematicians -- is "The Glass Bead Game," which won him the Nobel Prize back in '46 (I think). The term "glass bead game" has even percolated down to semi-popular discourse, with one writer calling Hegel's ideas "a vast glass bead game" and Hellegouarch, in his book on Fermat's Last Theorem, referring to the complex of ideas which Wiles and other introduced as a "glass bead game.""Narcissus and Goldmund" is another enchanting book. Hesse was much influenced by the ideas of Jung.
