Written from the perspective of a man simply referred to as H.H., Journey to the East tells the story of a group of men from a religious organization known as “The League,” who go on a pilgrimage to “the East” in search of the “ultimate Truth.” What they encounter during the journey and discover through its aftermath is nothing short of enlightening. In his indicative yet most unique style, Hesse captures the essence of what a spiritual journey of faith truly requires. Journey is a wonderfully entertaining and mystically fulfilling enticement of spirituality that should be enjoyed by anyone who is seeking that seemingly unattainable “truth.”
