Produktbeschreibung

"Siddhartha" is German author Herman Hesse's ninth novel. It relates the story of a young man in ancient India who decides to leave home and head out into the world seeking enlightenment. Siddhartha's journey through life is chronicled step-by-step, including his exposure to the Buddha, his romantic entanglements, economic success and, ultimately, his quest for the simple life, wherein he hopes to attain the spiritual peace he has always desired.

This extraordinary book reflects Hesse's search for meaning and enlightenment in his own life. Immersing himself in ancient Indian lore, Hesse crafted a timeless story of spiritual yearning, of the instinct to live a more simple and uncluttered life, to attain not monetary or material possessions, but inner peace and fulfillment.

"Siddhartha" is one of the most admired and acclaimed books of the early 20th century and helped cement Herman Hesse as one of the finest novelists in history. It is presented here in its original and unabridged format.

Autorenporträt

Hermann Hesse was a German-Swiss poet and novelist whose works explored the issues of spiritual enlightenment, personal growth, religion and philosophy. Enormously successful during his lifetime, Hesse would ultimately be awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1946. Fascinated with Eastern religions and teachings, Hesse spent his career trying to soothe his own restless and unfulfilled yearnings for peace, tranquility and fulfillment and produced some of the most widely-read and incisive European explorations of Eastern philosophy, such as "Demian," "Steppenwolf," "Siddhartha" and "Narcissus and Goldmund." A literary titan, Herman Hesse is regularly named among the most admired and honored writers of the 20th century.
