Críticas:
"A gentle and insidiously persuasive plea for the flight from academicism and the re-establishment of the simple values of the workman's life." --"Sunday Times" "It is unusual for a writer to begin with sincerity alone and to advance to a more complex apprehension of life without surrendering his pristine innocence. This has been Hermann Hesse's achievement." --"Observer" ""Written with deep sympathy . . . certainly makes you willing to read more of Herr Hesse."" --New Statesman ""A gentle and insidiously persuasive plea for the flight from academicism and the re-establishment of the simple values of the workman's life."" --Sunday Times ""It is unusual for a writer to begin with sincerity alone and to advance to a more complex apprehension of life without surrendering his pristine innocence.

Reseña del editor:
"The Prodigy," originally dating from 1905, is Hermann Hesses's bitter indictment of conventional education. It is the story of Hans Giebenrath, the brilliant young son of provincial bourgeouis in southern Germany who becomes the first boy from his town to pass into a prestigious Protestant theological college. His spirit, however, is systematically broken by his parents and teachers; over anxious about his success, they forget to consider his health and happiness. Subsiding into a fatal apathy, he is taken home for medical reasons. Here he falls in love, becomes an engineer's apprentice, learns to drink alcohol, and eventually dies by drowning. Out of his attitude to the treatment that he perceived was common within the German schooling system at the turn of the century, Hesse developed his own deeply personal views on the value of Eastern education in developing the self.
