This book chronicles the spiritual evolution of a man living in India at the time of the Buddha—a tale that has inspired generations of readers. We are invited along Siddhartha's journey experiencing his highs, lows, loves, and disappointments along the way. Hesse begins by showing us the life of a privileged brahmin's son. Handsome, well-loved, and growing increasingly dissatisfied with the life expected of him, Siddhartha sets out on his journey, not realizing that he is fulfilling the prophesies proclaimed at his birth. Siddhartha blends in with the world, showing the reader the beauty and intricacies of the mind, nature, and his experiences on the path to enlightenment.
Sherab Chödzin Kohn's flowing, poetic translation conveys the philosophical and spiritual nuances of Hesse's text, paying special attention to the qualities of meditative experience. Also included is an extensive introduction by Paul W. Morris that discusses the impact Siddhartha has had on American culture.

不是一本大家都会喜欢的书。可能是翻译的原因,英语版语言游走于传说寓言和日常用语之间。适合平静和慢节奏的时候读,能想起以前的一些事。

Don’t search, feel;dont stay away,hug;dont judge,love!最最简单的道理,但聪明的人难免自负,所以也难免要多走一些弯路。但是哪怕颠沛流离,一路的痛苦和收获,和最后“实无所得”的恬淡平凡,值得!值得!真是非常不错的阅读体验,常常忍不住点头也时而热泪盈眶,谢谢黑塞!谢谢悉达多!谢谢ferryman!谢谢河流!谢谢kamala!谢谢所有的堕落和高尚... 4.
