Steppenwolf Playlist

by Herman Hesse

This playlist follows Harry Haller from the lonely, self-divided world of 1920s Germany into the sensual, unsettling freedom of Hermine’s nightlife, jazz, and the Magic Theater. The instrumentals move between introspection and disorientation; the vocal songs evoke bourgeois alienation, outsiderhood, and the possibility of loosening Harry’s rigid ideas about himself.
