Siddharta

Hermann Hesse

Language: English

Published: Feb 1, 2000

Description:

With parallels to the enlightenment of the Buddha, Hesse's "Siddhartha" is the story of a young Brahmin's quest for the ultimate reality. Steeped in the tenets of both psychoanalysis and Eastern mysticism, "Siddhartha" presents an original view of man and culture, and the arduous process of self-discovery that leads to reconciliation, harmony, and peace.
