Booktalk: In this first-of-its-kind graphic novel retelling of the life of Siddhartha, the founder of Buddhism, the young prince lives in a beautiful palace in the heart of Kapilavastu. His father, the king, ensures that he has the best of everything–he just can’t go outside. He is locked up away from the city, away from anything that might cause him pain. He knows nothing of illness, aging, sorrow, or death, yet Siddhartha feels the pain regardless, and it instills a burning curiosity to understand the world outside–and the nature of human suffering.
