Product details

In the remote kingdom of Castalia, the scholars of the twenty-third century play the Glass Bead Game. This intricately coded game is a fusion of all human knowledge – encompassing mathematics, music, philosophy, science, and art. Captivated as a schoolboy, Joseph Knecht becomes obsessed as an adult with the drive to master the game. As Knecht fulfills his lifelong quest, he must confront unexpected dilemmas and the desire for a life beyond the ivory tower.
