Download or read book Siddhartha written by Hermann Hesse and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-05-18 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'Siddhartha', Hermann Hesse presents a poignant journey of self-discovery set against the backdrop of ancient India. It is a novel that transcends the boundaries of time and culture with its universal themes of searching for meaning and the nature of enlightenment. Written in a simple yet deeply lyrical style, Hesse enables the reader to accompany the protagonist on his odyssey from the confines of rigid spirituality to the embrace of life's temporal experiences and, finally, to the serene acceptance of impermanence and the wisdom of renunciation. The novel, placed within the flourishing tradition of German lyrical literature, is a bildungsroman of the spirit, underpinning its narrative with the quest for a harmonious existence and true inner peace.nHermann Hesse, born in the Black Forest, was heavily influenced by his parents' missionary background and his own struggles with institutional religion and personal identity. These core conflicts are adeptly explored in 'Siddhartha', mirroring aspects of Hesse's own journey through spiritual anguish and self-exploration. His profound contributions to literature, such as 'Siddhartha', were recognized in the conferral of the Nobel Prize in Literature, acknowledging his articulate voice on the journey towards self-realization and the complexities of the human psyche.nThis seminal work is recommended for anyone on their own path of self-discovery or those interested in the intersection of spirituality and literature. 'Siddhartha' holds particular resonance for readers who appreciate a narrative that is both an intimate character study and a meditation on the philosophical preoccupations of a generation. Hesse's masterful storytelling and philosophical depth make this novel a timeless treasure and a cornerstone of 20th-century literature.
Download or read book The Loser written by Thomas Bernhard and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2010-11-10 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Bernhard was one of the most original writers of the twentieth century. His formal innovation ranks with Beckett and Kafka, his outrageously cantankerous voice recalls Dostoevsky, but his gift for lacerating, lyrical, provocative prose is incomparably his own.One of Bernhard's most acclaimed novels, The Loser centers on a fictional relationship between piano virtuoso Glenn Gould and two of his fellow students who feel compelled to renounce their musical ambitions in the face of Gould's incomparable genius. One commits suicide, while the other-- the obsessive, witty, and self-mocking narrator-- has retreated into obscurity. Written as a monologue in one remarkable unbroken paragraph, The Loser is a brilliant meditation on success, failure, genius, and fame.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of the universally acclaimed debut novel A Case of Exploding Mangoes: a subversive, often shockingly funny new novel set in steaming Karachi, about second chances, thwarted ambitions, and love in the most unlikely places. The patients of the Sacred Heart Hospital for All Ailments need a miracle, and Alice Bhatti may be just what they're looking for. She's the new junior nurse, but that's the only thing ordinary about her. Her father is a part-time healer in the French Colony, Karachi's Christian slum--and it seems she has inherited his part-time gift. With a bit of begrudging but inspired improvisation, Alice brings succour to the patients lining the hospital's corridors. Yet, a Christian in an Islamic world, she is ensnared in the red tape of hospital bureaucracy, trapped by the caste system, and torn between her duty to her patients, her father, and her husband--an apprentice to the nefarious "Gentlemen's Squad" of the police, and about to plunge them both into a situation so dangerous that perhaps not even a miracle can save them. But, of course, Alice Bhatti is no ordinary nurse...
