«Siddhartha» is the allegorical novel by Hermann Hesse, published by Debolsillo in paperback, 216 pages, in Spanish.
Set in traditional India, it narrates the life of Siddhartha, a man who seeks truth through renunciation and the understanding of the unity underlying all existence. Hesse here captures his fascination with Eastern mysticism, and the result was one of his most representative works, with notable influence on twentieth-century Western culture.
The novel belongs to Debolsillo's Contemporánea collection and is translated into Spanish by Juan José del Solar. Hermann Hesse was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1946.
For readers of classic fiction, spiritual literature, and Buddhist-inspired narrative.
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.
