Description
Siddhartha is an inspirational classic from Nobel Prize-winner Hermann Hesse, a beautiful tale of self-discovery. Dissatisfied with the ways of life he has experienced, Siddhartha, the handsome son of a Brahmin, leaves his family and his friend Govinda in search of a higher state of being. Having experienced the myriad forms of existence, from immense wealth and luxury to the pleasures of sensual and paternal love, Siddhartha finally settles beside a river, where a humble ferryman teaches him his most valuable lesson yet. Echoing the life of the Buddha, Hesse’s short, elegant novel has been cherished by readers for decades as an unforgettable spiritual primer, tender moral allegory and undeniable classic of modern literature. Translated by Hilda Rosner.
