Sinopse

The formative stages of life are described in The Magic of Every Beginning , a collection of autobiographical texts by Hermann Hesse, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, translated by the acclaimed Lya Luft and unpublished in Brazil.

"Each human being is not only themselves, they are also the unique point, all special, always important and singular, where the phenomena of the world intersect once and never again. That is why the story of each human being is important, eternal, divine. That is why each human being, as long as they live and fulfill the will of nature, is wonderful and worthy of all care. In each one, the spirit has become form; in each one, the creature suffers; in each one, a savior is crucified...

Each person's life is a journey toward themselves, the attempt at a path, the intimation of a trail. No human being has ever been entirely themselves, but each of us struggles to become ourselves. Some apathetically, others more lightly, each as best we can. Each one carries to the end the remains of their birth, the sap and shell of their original, primitive environment. Many don't even become human; they remain frogs, lizards, ants. Many are human above, fish below. But each one is an effort by nature in search of humanity. Our origins are common, our mothers, we all emerge from the same orifice; but each one strives, in an effort and commitment from the depths, toward their own goals. We can understand each other, but each one can only interpret themselves.

Using examples from his own life story, The Magic of Every Beginning is a collection of autobiographical texts by Hermann Hesse that describe and reflect the "stages of human development," from earliest childhood to later years. With the writing skill of one of the most important writers of the 20th century, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature and author of classics such as Steppenwolf , Demian , and Siddhartha , it's impossible not to recognize yourself in them. After all, no matter how varied life's experiences may be, in the end, we are all, undeniably and inexorably, human.
