Nobel prizewinning author Hermann Hesse imagined life in India during the lifetime of the Buddha to create this memorable tale about a restless seeker of enlightenment. First published in 1922, Siddhartha employs powerful symbolism to impart its timeless teachings.The story concerns a young Brahman who quits his comfortable home to join a roving group of holy men in striving to empty their hearts of passion and desire through selfdenial and meditation. Discouraged by his failure to find Nirvana after three years of the strictest asceticism, the young seeker turns to the fleshly world, where he becomes a wealthy merchant and partakes of sensual pleasures with a sophisticated courtesan. Years of materialistic selfindulgence numb Siddhartha's soul, but at his moment of greatest despondency, he begins to experience his longsought spiritual awakening. True enlightenment, he realizes, cannot be received from the lessons of others; it must be attained through individual struggle.This handy duallanguage edition with its excellent lineforline English translation on pages facing the original German text offers students an outstanding opportunity to hone their Germanlanguage skills while discovering a literary classic.
