Synopsis

This classic novel of self-discovery has inspired generations of seekers. With parallels to the enlightenment of the Buddha, Hesse's Siddhartha is the story of a young Brahmin's quest for the ultimate reality. His quest takes him from the extremes of indulgent sensuality to the rigors of ascetism and self-denial. At last he learns that wisdom cannot be taught -- it must come from one's own experience and inner struggle.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Hermann Hesse (1877-1962) was a German-born Swiss novelist, poet and painter, awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1946. Born in Calw, Germany, and later a citizen of Switzerland, he wrote fiction preoccupied with the individual's search for authenticity and spiritual wholeness. His major works - Siddhartha (1922), Steppenwolf, Demian and The Glass Bead Game - drew on Indian and East Asian thought and made him one of the most widely read European authors of the twentieth century. Skomlin also publishes Hesse's The Journey to the East.
