Description: NOBEL WINNER TAKES US ON A FICTITIOUS JOURNEY OF SELF-FULFILLMENT THIS VERY ATTRACTIVE HARDCOVER BOOK IS A NEW EDITION of an unusual novel written in 1922 by the German author Hermann Hesse who went on to win the Nobel Prize for Literature after World War II. It took 30 years before the book reached American readers and it was really in the 1960s that it became popular and influential - largely, we presume because its subject matter was in tune with a growing search at that time for spiritual awareness and commitment among many people. It was Hesse's ninth novel and it recounts the search by a handsome young man - Brahmin Siddhartha - for inner fulfillment. His quest is not easy as he is tempted back into material life for a while by his love of a woman. Down the years, many readers have been inspired by his journey of self-discovery. THIS BRAND NEW EDITION IS ONE OF THE ILLUSTRATED CLASSICS series published by the Fall River Press. The publishers go out of their way give the books a quality feel and have designed the series in a way that evokes their ethnic associations. There are numerous color illustrations of which we show just a few above. This edition is translated from the German by Katja Pelzer.
