The Prophet, Paperback / softback Book

The Prophet Paperback / softback

Part of the Alma Classics Evergreens series

Paperback / softback

Description

Having lived in the city of Orphalese for twelve years, the revered Prophet is about to board a ship taking him back to the isle of his birth.

Before he departs, a group of people gather round and ask him to share his wisdom.

Written as a collection of poetic essays, and detailing such diverse and sprawling topics as love, death, pleasure and prayer, The Prophet was an immediate success on its initial publication in 1923, and has since been translated into more than a hundred languages. This edition contains the original illustrations by the author himself.
