Eine Stunde hinter Mitternacht by Hermann Hesse

"Eine Stunde hinter Mitternacht" by Hermann Hesse is a collection of nine prose sketches published in 1899. This dreamlike debut work transports readers to an artist's fantasy realm where a poet encounters mysterious women, including Frau Gertrud, on enchanted islands. Through fragmented scenes involving musicians, princes, and queens, Hesse weaves tales of beauty, jealousy, and murder. Written under the influence of Romanticism, these early prose studies reveal a young writer experimenting with symbolic imagery and poetic language to capture "the never-before-said."
