Title: A memorable novel about spiritual awakening
Review: This short book contains some profound lessons about religion, faith and coming of age. It is a book one can read quickly but it is not quickly forgotten. While Hesse won't blow you away as a writer in some respects (style, plot, dialogue, etc.), he does a wonderful job of character development in this novel (though be aware that the book is primarily focused on one person). This book is very enjoyable and can be digested by a variety of ages. I imagine this is the kind of book that will yield something new with each reading. Highly recommended.
