This book explores challenges for young people, focusing on self-understanding and growth. Young Siddhartha, though intelligent, harbored an unyielding emptiness and anxiety within his heart. Seeking spiritual freedom and the truth of life, he left his homeland and embarked on a solitary journey. Asceticism, desire, pleasure, wealth... He experienced life's extremes, falling into the depths of deep confusion. At the moment he despaired of everything, he heard the "voice of the river" and found the path to quiet enlightenment. This work is a story of a young man, but at the same time, it is a parable depicting "the journey of the heart that everyone goes through at some point in their lives." Hesse's transparent writing style leads readers to quiet introspection, gently awakening the question of "the true self" that lies dormant within them. Doubt, impatience, longing, and then rebirth. This is an eternal masterpiece that poetically depicts the cycle of life and the growth of the heart. Thank you for viewing.
