Herman Hesse’s classic novel has delighted, inspired, and influenced generations of readers, writers, and thinkers. In this story (based on the life of Buddha) a wealthy Indian Brahmin who casts off a life of privilege to seek spiritual fulfillment. Characteristic for Hesse’s work is that he synthesizes philosophies–Eastern religions, Jungian archetypes, Western individualism–into a unique vision of life as expressed through one man’s search for true meaning.
