Hermann Hesse, la solitude fondamentale
Quelques extraits choisis des oeuvres d'Hermann Hesse, à propos de la solitude qui lui était si chère.
Citations du moment
"La mélancolie est d’autant plus pure que l’amour l’enveloppe et l’alimente. De leur association naît une palpitation agréable et suave, une grâce de la solitude, un pressentiment voluptueux de l’éternité."
— Cioran, Le livre des leurres, 1936
