Books similar to Steppenwolf

[cfgs]

I would like to know books similar to Steppenwolf (Herman Hesse) in the matters of mood and composure.

Thank you.

cfgs, did you try looking up other Hermann Hesse books? I liked "Narcisius and Goldman" very much. I also loved his novela "Demian". I read these along with "Steppenwolf", when I was back in college, years and years ago....

Welcome to this forum, cfgs!~

Thank you, but I have actually read great part of Herman Hesse.

Thanks again.

Which aspects of the style of Steppenwolf are you looking for? If you are seeking out something of the Expressionism/Surrealism... then I might suggest Bulgakov's Master and Margarita, Kafka's Trial, Frank Wedekind's "Lulu" plays, Gunter Grass' Tin Drum might be in the right direction.

A few suggestions:

Nausea - Sartre
The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge - Rilke
Stranger - Camus
A Hunger Artist, The Trial, The Castle - Kafka
Notes From the Underground - Dostoevsky
Hourglass - Danilo Kiš
The Sorrows of Young Werther - Goethe
