Description
A gripping novel of the young prince who abandoned his inheritance to discover his true calling. Betrayed by those closest to him, Siddhartha abandons his palace and princely title. Alone and face-to-face with his demons, he becomes a wandering monk and embarks on a spiritual fast that carries him to the brink of death. Ultimately recognizing his inability to conquer his body and mind by sheer will, Siddhartha transcends his physical pain and achieves enlightenment. This iconic journey changed the world forever, and the truths revealed continue to influence every corner of the globe today.
