I didnt read the description and jumped into book thinking it will be story of Gautama Buddha, but was astronized to read through Siddhartha's life. He is a Brahmana, Samana, Merchant, Sinner, Ferryman and Gotama, as he describes in ending of the book, He is everyone and no one. 
Didnt feel like I was reading a philosophical book, but took my time reading, reflecting on the story.
