Can someone explain to me why you retards like Hesse so much? His writing is so sub-par & cliche to me with the only real good quality about his books being the substance matter which was fairly innovative and new for his time

felt a bit like the main character in steppenwolf, not sure if I finished the book, but wasn't there a woman that flirted with him, not me at all, but I think he walked around being a loser, never invited to anything, seeing parties and shit always from outside the windows, literally me, never part of shit
