Negative Positive
Title: big let down.....
Review: If I was going to be locked up for 10 years and they let me choose just one book to take with me I'd grab Siddhartha. So when I read the reviews of Narcissus&Goldmund; I couldn't wait.Now I find it hard to believe the same person wrote both books.N&G; is lacking in all respects and there is no ending - throughout the book there is a poorly defined attempt to create or illuminate a conflict (which is sloppy) and there is no resolution at the end. What an empty book. If this is Hesse's work then I wonder whom he stole Siddhartha from.
Is the review positive or negative?
