15 Books Like Siddhartha

Siddhartha tells the story of a young man’s spiritual journey during the time of the Buddha. Siddhartha, born into privilege, leaves his home to seek enlightenment. He explores different paths, including asceticism, sensual pleasures, and material wealth, but none bring him lasting fulfillment.

It is only through introspection and connection with the natural world, particularly through the wisdom of a simple ferryman, that Siddhartha achieves inner peace. Hermann Hesse’s novel explores themes of self-discovery, spiritual enlightenment, and the importance of experience in attaining wisdom.
