"Paulo Coelho: A Warrior's Life" is the first-ever biography of
the man whose books have sold an astounding 100 million copies
worldwide, making him one of the bestselling authors of all
time.
Paulo Coelho's life begins with a complicated birth in Rio de
Janeiro, Brazil, in August 1947. He was known as the "boy who was
born dead" and who ultimately survived against all odds. Before he
became internationally known as a worldwide bestselling author,
Paulo lived many different lives. He flirted with suicide, was
committed by his parents to insane asylums, suffered the brutality
of electric shock therapy, dove into drugs, tried several varieties
of sex, met the devil, spent time in prison, helped revolutionize
Brazilian rock with musician Raul Seixas, and finally rediscovered
his faith in 1986 as he walked the sacred Road to Santiago de
Compostela, a medieval pilgrim's route between France and
Spain.
Coelho would later describe this life-changing spiritual
experience in his first book, "The Pilgrimage." The following year,
"The Alchemist" established his worldwide reputation. The novel has
already achieved the status of a universally admired modern
classic. Now, for the first time, discover the life story of one of
the most widely read and adored authors of our time.
