«Siddhartha» is the spiritual novel by Hermann Hesse, published by Plaza & Janés Editores in paperback (211 pages, in Spanish).
Set in traditional India, the novel follows the life journey of Siddhartha, a man who seeks enlightenment through teachers, experiences and renunciation, until he attains the understanding of the unity underlying all that exists. Hesse thus brings Eastern thought closer to the Western reader.
Work originally published in 1922; this Spanish edition features a translation by Juan José del Solar.
Suitable for young readers and for those seeking classic fiction on spirituality and Eastern thought.
Hermann Karl Hesse was a German-Swiss poet and novelist, and winner of the 1946 Nobel Prize in Literature. His interest in Eastern religious, spiritual, and philosophical traditions, combined with his involvement with Jungian analysis, helped shape his literary work. His best-known novels include Demian, Steppenwolf, Siddhartha, Narcissus and Goldmund, and The Glass Bead Game, each of which explores an individual's search for authenticity, self-knowledge, and spirituality.
