“This beautiful book is a worthy successor to the Hermann Hesse classic, Siddhartha. It explores with great heart some of the most important spiritual and existential issues we all confront, and within the context of a compelling story. Little Siddhartha resonates with its own distinct wisdom.” | “Irwin makes Hesse’s classic story of youth, restlessness, and spiritual hunger as urgent as ever. In Little Siddhartha we see that as one grows older, the longing only grows deeper. Like Hesse, Irwin captures the timeless spiritual journey in beautifully mystical prose. Books, like rivers, don’t speak. Nor do they have magical powers. But if you close your eyes and listen to little Siddhartha’s story, you’ll probably beg to differ.” “This book is about an Indian boy, Siddhartha, who is on a quest to find his own path in life against the wishes of his father. Irwin writes about Siddhartha’s journey from the inside, as though maybe this boy is really him. But by the end, I found myself thinking, maybe this boy is really me.” —Sharon M. Kaye, author of The Aristotle Quest: Black Market Truth | |||||||||||||||||
