Happy new year! I was like you who thought the book was the story of Buddha. Apparently, it goes far beyond and such an intriguing book to ponder on. There are many philosophical ideas written in this short story such as the idea of searching for someone. This book is my all time favorite book that I've read. While I have its pdf and physical copy, I am compelled to find its original copies.

Happy New Year, @macchiata!
Yes, it is a really valuable book, and I understand why you want an original copy. I guess it's written in German. You know, like you, Siddhartha is among the best books I've read so far. And I have read a lot in my life.
Greetings.
