Demian By Hesse
Or maybe Siddhartha

inb4 A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man.I'd argue Portrait is more of Künstlerroman than bildungsroman. Sure, Künstlerroman is understood as a sub-genre of bildungsroman, but the difference is worth noting.

>>7443353
Portrait, or just take 80% of Hesse's novels and novellas and squish them together.
>>
Demian
>>
Blood Meridian.

duh

tom jones, tristram shandy, david copperfield, the tin drum, augie march, gil blas of santillane, anyway, fuck bildungsromans, picaresques are where it's at.
>>
oh, and of human bondage, i guess you could squeeze in journey to the west, lazarillo de tormes would be picaresque but also an incomplete bildungsroman, and possibly el buscon, some of the recognitions, i suppose, the sot-weed factor, count of monte cristo in a way...
>>
simplicissimus, and that's all i can think of right now.
