@georgia i loved his slut status but having to read through his descriptions and comparisons of women made me want to forget how to read, and those parts could go on for so longg (when he was into a younger girl hesse had to mention how it wasnt predatory in any way, he just liked women of all ages)
His worldview of forgetting the pain and tragedy of life by having sex just makes me think he has a personality disorder, and it got worse as he got older cause he barely changed up until the very end (and that was only cause he was old as hell and no one wanted to be with his homeless ass anymore)
Kinda reminds me of lestat now that i think about it but not as loveable

@georgia hesse has really interesting novels but his main philosophy mostly remains the same
narcissus and goldmund was a little different though, it was a little limiting and it kinda seemed as thought narcissus and goldmund were supposed to be one person instead of seperate characters

@ruina I looked up the book and apparently he represents the feminine principle which is pretty funny because I associate promiscuity with men

@georgia @ruina lol no Evola considers impulsivity and capriciousness with the cult of the woman.
