Siddhartha: Essential Pocket Classics
Autor Hermann Hesseen Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 oct 2022
Siddhartha is an insightful glimpse into the human soul, a classic novel of discovery, and a literary exploration of the true nature of purpose and spirituality. Set during the time of the Buddha, the novel tells the story of a wealthy Brahmin who, plagued by a soul-deep discontentment, leaves his life of ease in order to seek out a sense of deeper fulfillment. His persistent, stumbling search for meaning has resonated with readers for generations, making Siddhartha one of the most powerful novels of the modern age.
Nobel Prize winning author Herman Hesse presents a vision of spirituality distilled from schools of thought ranging from Jungian archetypes to Eastern religion that will challenge and resonate with readers from all walks of life.

Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express
Serju Dumitrescu a dat nota:
Este o carte minunata de care am aflat dintr-o alta carte extraordinara (Tim Ferriss-Instrumentele titanilor). A fost recomandata de 4 titani din cartea lui Tim Ferriss si mi-am propus sa o citesc. Reprezinta drumul pe care il parcurge un om, Siddhartha, spre iluminare. Trece prin mai multe etape de evolutie in calea catre desavarsire: om sarac, om bogat, om sarac, iluminat. Este o carte care "sapa" adanc in constiinta noastra si ne da speranta tuturor, in sensul ca nu conteaza in ce faza de evolutie suntem. Toti putem sa avansam. Spor la citit!

Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
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 dispair, Siddhartha comes to a river where he hears a unique sound. This sound signals the true beginning of life - the beginning of suffering, rejection, peace and, finally, wisdom.
