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.

Multiple read worthy...

I have read this multiple times and probably will continue to read it. I have found it interesting, there's times in the story that I go... "no that's not right..." But that is also part of the story.
