Siddhartha, by Hermann Hesse (1877-1962) is one of the classic books for young souls, eager to explore themselves and experience the world. Rooted in the author's life-long interest with Buddhism and Oriental philosophy, Siddhartha offers a unique perspective through the experience of life, in particular for people who have grown up in capitalist societies. Hermann Hesse was a Swiss-German writer who like few others investigated the theme of the crisis of man in the modern world. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1946.
