In Siddhartha, Herman Hesse conveys a very profound message for all those who seek meaning in their lives. Though set in India, the concerns of Siddhartha are universal, expressing Hesse's general interest in the conflict between mind, body, and spirit. It is a story of a Brahmin boy who follows his heart and ventures out into the world to experience life as a pious Brahmin, a Samana, a rich merchant, a lover, and ordinary ferryman to a father - each life bringing a new awakening, bringing him closer to the truth until he is finally one with Buddha.

I wasn't sure what I was getting into. I didn't even remember why I had this on my list to read, but I'm glad I read it. It's your basic philosophy for life. With the entire point being that its not the end that is the goal, but the path that is the goal. That you should never stop learning, never stop getting closer to enlightenment.

I feel like this book is essentially meditation in story form if that makes sense.

Story's reviews are available in many resources, so I'll focus on the narrator. He has a really soothing voice and an excellent command of it. The toning, emphasizing and volume changes per context were all in place and outstanding. I hope I can get more books he has read.

Outstanding audiobook (author+narrator)

With every single word having much meaning, this little book is some of the most inspiring I read.

And it's not (directly) about the Buddha ;)

Enjoy!

This was a joyful experience. The narrator is excellent, the story is very good, very unexpected.

I was very touched by parts two and three. The detail that Herman Hesse delivers are astonishing.

I thought that the story was about the Buddha... Oh... Wrong! The Buddha is a small participant... It's about another Siddhartha, one that finds and loses enlightenment. One that experiences the world, the samsara, one that learns, that make mistakes and...

I wish you have a wonderful experience listening to this book.

Great unexpected book!
