Siddhartha
Hermann Hesse

Bantam Classics, 1982

Samsara is nirvana
There are some books everyone talks about but nobody reads. And then, there are books everyone reads but nobody understands. "Siddhartha" by Hermann Hesse seems to be one of those. I didn't expect much from this book after reading about it on the web. I expected it to ... 		  
  







  
  
The Glass Bead Game: (Magister Ludi) A Novel
Hermann Hesse

Picador, 2002

The best Hesse's book
First time I read it when I was 15, and I thought it was one of the best books I've ever read. One has to be prepared to read this book and to be able to accept all: strange combination of math, music, language, different ideas, search for harmony. I reread this book ...

Siddhartha (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)
Hermann Hesse

Penguin Classics, 2002

Lessons for life.
This is an excellant book for people seeking answers to living life to its fullest. Siddhartha learned the lessons the hard way and through his journey we then learn those same lessons and find out just how simple they really are. I recommend reading this book again as ... 		  
  







  
  
Narcissus and Goldmund: A Novel
Hermann Hesse

Picador, 2003

Hesse's Master Work
From a writer more commonly working in shorter fiction, or at depths that require intense concentration, this book is an masterpiece of extended prose that balances depth and lyricism, scenery and thought, secular and divine. The dualities compliment the exploration of ... 		  
  







  
  
The Journey to the East
Hermann Hesse

Picador, 2003

A cause for introspection
An idealist goes off in search of enlightenment, roams his searching fruitlessly, and in his failure, finally looks in the correct direction. Read it cover to cover. Put it down for a day. Read it again. If you can do this, and not reflect on your own goals, ... 		  
  







  
  
Narcissus and Goldmund
Hermann Hesse

a true work of literature.
This book is a wonderful philosophical book that shows the contrast between feelings and thoughts.While reading I was was confronted by quite a number of necessary metaphysical questions.Questions regarding our belief, emotion, thought, perception, logic, divinity and ... 		  
  







  
  
Steppenwolf: A Novel
Hermann Hesse

Picador, 2002

Good Morning
I lay in a tub of hot water, relaxing, "coming to" early in the morning. The words come off the page through my eyes narrowly bumping up against my brain en route to my heart. Incredible! Materiel for an epitaph, the stuff worthy of my eulogy. If it can't be ... 		  
  







  
  
Siddhartha
Hermann Hesse

Shambhala, 2002

A book you must experience...
I admit that it has been several years since I read this book. I also admit that as it is one of my favorite novels I am not an unbiased source (but who is). With that grain of salt having been swallowed this book is foremost a tale about the birth of a new kind of ... 		  
  







  
  
Siddhartha
Hermann Hesse

Norilana Books, 2007

Great Buy
I'm usually concerned about purchasing items on line, especially books. I can honestly say that this experience was worth it. I would recommend this seller to anyone interested in purchasing good quality books at extremely reasonable prices. Buy with confidence, ... 		  
  







  
  
Siddhartha (Shambhala Classics)
Hermann Hesse

Shambhala, 2005

A re-reading after 35 years
When I was about to start college, a friend who had just finished his freshman year came home for the summer raving about Hermann Hesse. I had not heard of Hesse but, I later learned that he was a writer who was particularly relevent to college students of that era who ... 		  
  







  
  
Siddhartha, 2008

"Siddhartha" means "he who has attained his goals" or "every wish fulfilled". The Buddha's name, before his renunciation, was Prince Siddhartha Gautama, later the Buddha. The main character of Siddhartha in the book is not the same person as the Buddha, who in the book goes by the name "Gotama". The novel takes place in ancient India around the ... 		  
  







  
  
Demian
Hermann Hesse

Bantam Books, 1970

Strange companions
As a little boy Emile Sinclair feels that life is divided into a world of light and a world of dark. Emile meets Max Demian, an older self-assured boy who seems to know much about life. While Demian does not dominate Sinclair, the younger boy falls increasingly under ... 		  
  







  
  
Beneath the Wheel
Hermann Hesse

Picador, 2003

1906 is not far from 2008
For anyone being crushed and canned within the (mostly) incompetant and self-serving system of American Educational Faculty personnel, this book is a fair warning to any prospective college student (of any age) as to what they are really signing up for. I would suggest ... 		  
  







  
  
Siddhartha
Hermann Hesse

Bantam, 1971

In the novel, Siddhartha, a young man, leaves his family for a contemplative life, then, restless, discards it for one of the flesh. He conceives a son, but bored and sickened by lust and greed, moves on again. Near despair, Siddhartha comes to a river where he hears a unique sound. This sound signals the true beginning of his life - the beginning ...
