Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha is a literary classic. It continues to
be the most popular of the many novels by the prolific Nobel Prize
laureate. The touching story of one man's search for the meaning of
life, for enlightenment and knowledge is related with a graceful
simplicity that is common only to great literature.
From the original German, Siddhartha has been translated into
most of the world's languages and has enjoyed great success.
Hesse's style of writing - clear, straightforward and direct - has
made the tale of Siddhartha's search for truth and wisdom
accessible to a wide variety of readers around the globe.
To assist students, scholars and others who might be interested
in a better understanding of Hesse's elegantly simple prose, this
bilingual edition has been assembled with the English translation
on the facing page mirroring the German text paragraph by
paragraph. Those familiar with both languages will appreciate the
opportunity to read this great work in both languages and will
surely marvel at the directness with which Hermann Hesse's German
translates into English. Those not familiar with both languages
will be surprised at how very similar the two languages are. Those
wishing to improve their own language skills, in either language,
could hardly choose a better example of fine writing than that of
Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha.
