"On his Instagram, Coppola also shouted out a fourth source of inspiration for his passion project–Herman Hesse’s 'unfinished tetralogy,' The Glass Bead Game."

"In days of yore · out of deep Ocean
to the Longobards, · in the land dwelling
that of old they held · amid the isles of the North,
a ship came sailing, · shining-timbered
without oar and mast, · eastward floating.
The sun behind it · sinking westward
with flame kindled · the fallow water.
Wind was wakened. · Over the world’s margin
clouds greyhelmèd · climbed slowly up
wings unfolding · wide and looming,
as mighty eagles · moving onward
to eastern Earth · omen bearing.
Men there marvelled, · in the mist standing
of the dark islands · in the deeps of time:
laughter they knew not, · light nor wisdom;
shadow was upon them, · and sheer mountains
stalked behind them · stern and lifeless,
evilhaunted. · The East was dark."
