Herman Hesse remained clear-sighted and consistent in his political
views and his passionate espousal of pacifism and the bloody
absurdity of war from the start of the First World War to the end
of his life. He wrote the earliest essay in this book in September
1914, before he cemented his fame with the novels Steppenwolf and
Siddhartha, and continued writing a stream of letters, essays and
pamphlets throughout the war. In his native Germany his views
earned him the labels 'traitor' and 'viper', but after World War II
he was moved to reiterate his beliefs in another series of essays
and letters. If the War Goes On . . . resonates as strongly today
as it did when originally published and begs the question: have our
politicians learnt nothing in the last seventy years?
