Writing through Siddhartha

Mehr zum Buch

Experimental poetry takes center stage as Andre Bagoo reimagines Herman Hesse's Siddartha using an Oulipo-style algorithm. By extracting lines and phrases, he infuses the novel with ghost poems that blend his voice with Hesse's and mathematical concepts. This unique approach demonstrates that even when a text's core is altered, its essence endures, creating a dialogue between literature, spirituality, and innovation. Writing through Siddartha challenges traditional narratives while exploring the interplay of language and meaning.
