Rosshalde by Hermann Hesse
A renowned painter living on an isolated estate finds his marriage broken and his only solace in the tender companionship of his young son. Torn between devotion to his art and the demands of family, he withdraws ever deeper into solitude until a seaside journey with the boy ends in sudden illness and devastating loss. The tragedy exposes the sterile façade of domestic life and the cost of artistic obsession, pushing him toward departure and the possibility of spiritual renewal.
