THIS BOOK CONTAINS THE RECORDS left us by a man whom , according to the expression he often used himself , we called the Steppenwolf . Whether this manuscript needs any introductory remarks may be open to question . I , however , feel the need of adding a few pages to those of the Steppenwolf in which I try to record my recollections of him . What I know of him is little enough . Indeed , of his past life and origins I know nothing at all . Yet the impression left by his personality has remained , in spite of all , a deep and sympathetic one .. Some years ago the Steppenwolf , who was then approaching fifty , called on my aunt to inquire for a furnished room . He took the attic room on the top floor and the bedroom next it , returned a day or two later with two trunks and a big case of books and stayed nine or ten months with us . He lived by himself very quietly , and but for the fact that our bedrooms were next to each other -- which occasioned a good many chance encounters . . .
