The unforgettable novel of an inspiring spiritual journey is an expression of Nobel laureate Herman Hesse's fascination with oriental India. Young Siddhartha tries to put a value on his life experiences, making efforts to reconcile contemplative inclinations and carnal needs. He abandons his family home in search of fulfillment, but seems to find it neither in the arms of a beautiful courtesan nor surrounded by merchant wealth. Will his toil in search of inner peace finally lead him to achieve true universal wisdom? With its masterful simplicity and captivating beauty of language, this unique story has left an indelible impression on readers reaching for the best works of world literature classics for years.
