A perspective -- Childhood and its discontents -- The first new life: from bookseller to author -- The second new life: the author and his household -- The idyll unraveled -- From crisis to war -- The third new life: vagabond of the imagination -- The ailing traveler -- Symbolic city: the self's inferno -- The fourth new life: from sense to spirit -- Citadel against history -- The final new life -- Pilgrim of crisis.
