Siddhartha by Hermann HesseSiddhartha by Hermann Hesse

Herman Hesse's 1922 Bildungsroman parallels the life of Buddha and seems to argue that lessons cannot be taught but come from one's own struggle to find truth. Siddhartha is that most unusual of all stories - one that follows a character throughout most of his life . . . and describes that life in terms of a spiritual journey.

Winner of the Nobel Prize for The Glass Bead Game, Hesse renders life's callings in a way that has called readers to a renewed sense of purpose and possibility.
