Plot title confusion, please help

I thought the story about a gifted schoolboy, academic who goes to university to have a profound reappraisal of his life, only to return to his village to work for a blacksmith was Peter Camenzind.

I've just realised it's not. Please can someone tell me the correct title?

Thanks in anticipation.

The book you're thinking of is "Beneath the Wheel."

Thanks Babelfish

It also has the title The Prodigy I see.
