AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This book contains Siddhartha, Hermann Hesse’s philosophical narrative exploring a man’s lifelong search for self-knowledge and inner harmony. The text reflects on spiritual awakening, personal experience, and the reconciliation of opposing paths such as asceticism and worldly life. Rather than offering fixed teachings, the story emphasizes individual insight gained through living, observation, and inner transformation, making it one of Hesse’s most enduring and influential works.
The book is considered rare as an early 1922 publication by S. Fischer Verlag, dating from the first years of Siddhartha’s release. The edition includes the original publisher’s statements and limitation notice referring to a very small number of special copies reserved for the author, which situates this copy firmly within the earliest production period of the work. Early examples from this publication phase are increasingly scarce on the market.
This item is carefully packaged and shipped with a track-and-trace code.
