A special illustrated hardcover edition of an international
bestselling classic. This edition includes 10 specially
commissioned, full-color original plates, as well as original
illustrations throughout. Few books can be described as universal.
And yet, The Prophet, by Lebanese-American author Kahlil Gibran,
can only be described as that. Originally published in 1923, The
Prophet is considered Gibran's masterpiece and is one of the most
beloved spiritual classics of all time. Further cementing its
status as a worldwide classic is the fact that it has been
translated into over 100 different languages, making it one of the
most translated books in history. Drawn from Gibran's own
experience as an immigrant, The Prophet transcends generations,
languages, and borders. In this beautiful meditation on the meaning
of life, Al Mustafa, the prophet, is about to board a ship back to
his homeland after 12 years spent living in exile in the city of
Orphalese. Before he departs, he is stopped by a group of followers
who ask him to share his wisdom. In twenty-six poetic essays, Al
Mustafa offers profound and timeless insights on various aspects of
life and the myriad impulses of the human heart and mind. He offers
lessons on love, marriage, children, pain, friendship, beauty,
religion, joy, knowledge, reason and passion, time, good and evil,
pleasure, and death. A timeless spiritual touchstone, this
gorgeously illustrated gift edition is perfect for graduating
students, or for anyone searching for solace, peace, hope, and
purpose in today's world.
