"['The Glass Bead Game'] is a book about the future which is really about the past; a timeless, universal game which is also the toy of a quaint passing culture; a work filled with impressive learning yet leading to a negation of reason and knowledge....It is Hesse's vision, then, that excites his readers. In such a context, questions of artistic form or dramatic involvement are not really decisive. Indeed, Hesse's admirers look at his fiction as a philosophical panorama."Hesse, Hermann is the author of 'Glass Bead Game (Magister Ludi)', published 2002 under ISBN 9780312278496 and ISBN 0312278497.
