I had to pass through so much stupidity, through so much vice, through so many errors, through so much disgust and disappointments and woe, just to become a child again and to be able to start over." The book is filled with beautiful quotes, which often made me stop and think about; happiness, sadness, life, death, and they're a reminder that we're all on our own individual journeys, striving for the same thing, fulfilment. The story follows Siddhartha's (Buddha's) journey to finding enlightenment. Hesse's beautiful prose, follows Siddhartha through the trials and errors he comes up against during his journey of self-discovery. I particularly liked how this was done naturally through story telling, rather than each stage of his journey being explicitly stated through chapter titles. The only thing that I didn't totally love about the book, was that it became quite sexual in parts, which I wasn't expecting and found to be quite random. I'm no prude, but I personally don't think it added much to the overall story, and didn't need to be such a big part of his journey. Overall, however, I really enjoyed the book and Hesse's evocative writing style, as it makes you reflect on your own life. The book is also obviously written through a Western lens, given that Hesse was German-Swiss, however, it still makes for an impactful read. "...all sin already carries the divine forgiveness in itself, all small children already have the old person in themselves, all infants already have death, all dying people the eternal life." Would highly recommend this Penguin India edition as the cover art is beautiful and it's a good quality paperback (9780143456872). Review: A Profound and Spiritually Uplifting Book - This is a simply stunning and beautiful book. The story is that of Siddarthar, a Brahimn's [near holy person] son who as he approaches the age of adulthood, decides to start a journey. It's a small book and yet it is a story that is simply told and spiritually uplifting. Sometimes you can read books and they have impact for different reasons. Siddartha is a book that stays with you for quite a while because it teaches you a lot in a very short period of time. It amazes me that a story from Herman Hesse, has such talent and beauty as I've only heard of his name before mentioned in a vague but knowledgeable manner. This is well worth reading as it would seem to be one of the most important books ever written. Many thanks Mr. Hesse. xx ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 31,958 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 20 in Philosophy of Buddhism 41 in Spiritual Literature & Fiction 86 in Religious Fiction | | Customer reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (22,094) | | Dimensions | 22.4 x 14.6 x 2 cm | | ISBN-10 | 9387779335 | | ISBN-13 | 978-9387779334 | | Item weight | 292 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 224 pages | | Publication date | 1 April 2018 | | Publisher | Fingerprint!

Many thanks Mr. Hesse. xx ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Siddhartha *by S***O on 9 April 2009* `Siddhartha' is one of those books that is both simple to read and yet powerful and profound at the same time. Following a young Brahmin's son as he tries to find his spiritual path in life, this book manages to weave a tale that is both captivating and enlightening. This book is so good I could read the first 30 pages alone and put the book down a happy man, the remainder is purely icing on the cake! Hesse manages to write in a deceptively simple style that belies the depth to the message he shows us and the skill behind his writing. He won the nobel prize for good reason. This may be a short book, but it is one that will stay with you long after you have read it and will bring you back to rediscover it's delights at regular intervals. Beautiful prose, beautiful message and highly recommended indeed.
