Looking for a ‘Christian’ version of Siddartha by Hermann Hesse.
I think for the most part I’m looking for a book centered around Christian philosophy? I don’t know that it needs to be a fictional narrative. But I don’t want to read something like “A Case for Christ” by Lee Stroble.
Narrative Christian philosophy may be challenging to find, but a great example of narrative Christian theology would be *The Pilgrim’s Progress* by John Bunyan.
For a Christian philosopher who wrote much fiction, maybe try out some C.S. Lewis (perhaps best known for *The Chronicles of Narnia)*. Lewis has a variety of works which are rather explicitly about Christianity, such as:
* *The Screwtape Letters*
* *Till We Have Faces*
* *The Great Divorce*
* *The Ransom Trilogy* – the final book *That Hideous Strength* is a narrative version of *The Abolition of Man* which is a short philosophical work on education and natural law.

Have you read Narcissus and Goldmund by Hesse?
