You are either 15 and need to go to bed or you are mid-20s and you just started reading serious books last week.

Ooof...

Don't let the Pseud's infect you with their cowardly literary elitism. They live their lives huddled in fear, too terrified to like anything. Siddhartha and Steppenwolf are both excellent books. Yes you are being filtered. That's oll korrect. Return when you are older. All the best.

I just want to reiterate what the other anon said, they are both great books. You can't post anything on here without it getting shit on by contrarians. I think Steppenwolf does go a bit off the rails at the end but reading Siddharta felt like being in a dream.

a bit of both. read Demian, and Narcissus and Goldmund

The latter. I’m rather new to serious literature.

>Siddhartha
Alchemist / Celestine Prophecy-tier slop for the masses, though maybe it was a banger at the time, what with all the Westoid Orientalist travelogues happening.
The Glass Bead Game is for the thinking man.

The Glass Bead Game is an old man's book. Enjoy it with that in mind.
