"Diese längere, sehr ruhige Erzählung Hesses, nimmt den Leser mit in das Jahr 1823. Angelehnt an Überlieferungen, schildert er, wie die Theologiestudenten und späteren Dichter Wilhelm Waiblinger und Eduard Mörike, den geistig verwirrten, damals 53-jährigen Friedrich Hölderlin bei seiner Pflegefamilie Zimmer in der Bursagasse abholen, um mit ihm zu dem titelgebenden Gartenhäuschen zu wandern. Es lag einst auf dem innenstadtnahen Österberg, um den herum sich damals noch keine Wohnbebauung befand, sondern Gärten und Weinberge. In einem dieser Gärten, stand das im chinesischen Stil erbaute Häuschen, das längst verschwunden ist." Lightly age-toned wrappers with only the slightest wear to bottom front fore-edge corner wrapper, else, Pristine. Clean, tight and strong binding with no underlining, highlighting or marginalia. Grey cloth with black half-cloth backstrip with black lettering on front board and gilt lettering on front edge of black cloth, and gilt lettering to spine..
