Description

A dense, rarely beautiful, widely read, much discussed, short book, now legendary, that seems to pass from generation to generation, from grandfather to grandson, without losing a drop of its vigor or a shred of its strength over the passage of time, even though more than a hundred years have passed since its first appearance.
From the afterword of G.-I. Babasaki

Poet, painter, and mystic, the Lebanese Khalil Gibran has touched millions of readers around the world with his masterpiece The Prophet (1923) and its sequel The Garden of the Prophet (1933), a work published after the author's death.
Through the story of the prophet Al Mustafa and his discussions with various people, Gibran offers us, with breathtaking simplicity and a distilled wisdom, a comforting reflection on the great issues of life.

In the book you will meet
