122 pp. Translated from the original German by Hilda Rosner. The classic novel by the Nobel Prize winning author. "Siddhartha, a young man, leaves his family for a contemplative li fe, 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 despair, Siddhartha comes to a river where he hears a unique sound. This sound signals the true beginning of his life -- the beginning of suffering, rejection, peace, and, finally, wisdom."
