This classic novel of self-discovery has inspired generations of seekers. With parallels to the enlightenment, Hesse's Siddhartha is the story of a young Brahmn's quest for the ultimate reality. His quest takes him from the extremes of indulgent sensuality to the rigors of asceticism and self-denial. At last he learns that wisdom cannot be taught-it must come from one's own experience and inner struggle. Steeped in the tenets of both psychoanalysis and Eastern mysticism, Siddhartha presents a strikingly original view of man and culture, and the arduous process of self-discovery that leads to reconciliation, harmony and peace. Considered to be a classic of 20th-century fiction, Hesse's most celebrated work reflects his lifelong studies of Oriental myth and religion.

The book came as scheduled, and it was in good condition. The book forces you to really think; though this book focuses more on thoughts and understanding rather than fast paced adventure.The translation was very good and the book was definitely well written. I found Siddhartha a very good novel!
