The classic novel of a quest for knowledge that has delighted, inspired, and influenced generations of readers, writers, and thinkersâ€”a perennial favorite for graduation gifts.Nominated as one of Americaâ€™s best-loved novels by PBSâ€™s The Great American ReadThough set in a place and time far removed from the Germany of 1922, the year of the bookâ€™s debut, the novel is infused with the sensibilities of Hermann Hesseâ€™s time, synthesizing disparate philosophiesâ€“Eastern religions, Jungian archetypes, Western individualismâ€“into a unique vision of life as expressed through one manâ€™s search for meaning.It is the story of the quest of Siddhartha, a wealthy Indian Brahmin who casts off a life of privilege and comfort to seek spiritual fulfillment and wisdom. On his journey, Siddhartha encounters wandering ascetics, Buddhist monks, and successful merchants, as well as a courtesan named Kamala and a simple ferryman who has attained enlightenment. Traveling among these people and experiencing lifeâ€™s vital passagesâ€“love, work, friendship, and fatherhoodâ€“Siddhartha discovers that true knowledge is guided from within.
