Siddhartha" by Hermann Hesse is a timeless and profound novel that takes readers on an introspective journey of self-discovery and spiritual enlightenment. Set in ancient India, the story follows the titular character, Siddhartha, a young Brahmin who embarks on a quest to unravel the mysteries of existence and find ultimate meaning in life. Driven by a restless spirit and a deep yearning for truth, Siddhartha rejects the traditional path of his upbringing and embarks on a relentless pursuit of spiritual wisdom. Leaving behind his comfortable life, he traverses various realms of existence, seeking guidance and enlightenment from spiritual teachers, ascetics, and even courtesans. Read in English, unabridged.

      Siddhartha was a mid-century revelation to generations of Western students new to Eastern religions. While it no longer brings the shock of the new, Hesse's story of a lifelong seeker of inner peace still has the enduring purity of myth or fable. Siddhartha and his more conventional friend, Govinda, set out on their quest together but take different paths when Govinda chooses to follow an enlightened master, while Siddhartha believes that true wisdom can't be found by following signposts erected by others. The new translation and production here are fine, though Baron Christian's voice gives more pleasure than his pronunciation. B.G. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine
