Hermann Hesse wrote Siddhartha after he traveled to India in the 1910s. It tells the story of a young boy who travels the country in a quest for spiritual enlightenment in the time of Guatama Buddha. It is a compact, lyrical work, which reads like an allegory about the finding of wisdom.

Review of 'Siddhartha' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

A really beautiful book, full of poetry and teachings, this one goes directly in my Life Changing category. I must admit that I didn't know much about Siddhartha before reading this (my only glimpse was the movie Little Buddha so...), and this was really interesting. It teaches you a lot about how everything intertwines, but also how to deal with pain, longing, patience, suffering, and life as its whole.
