Produktbeschreibung
Khalil Gibran is the third most read poet in history, with only Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu more widely studied. 'The Prophet' is Gibran's greatest work, a prose poem of sublime majesty describing his own timeless philosophy of life. A prophet prepares to leave the townsfolk with whom he has lived for 12 years, and who have come to love and respect him . Each villager asks a question of the sage - twenty-six in all - on topics ranging from Marriage and Death, through Beauty and Giving, to Pain and Freedom. And each receives in response the blessing of pure wisdom, free of cant or dogma, an answer that all, irrespective of position or religion, can take to their heart. As the Chicago Post has said: "If there is a man or woman who can read this book without... a singing in the heart as of music born within, that man or woman is indeed dead to life and truth."

Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931), a Lebanese-American writer, poet, and visual artist, is best known for his groundbreaking book The Prophet, published in 1923. This profound work of prose poetry has been translated into over one hundred languages and has become one of the most widely read books in literary history, selling millions of copies worldwide. Beyond his most famous publication, Gibran wrote nine books in Arabic and eight in English, exploring deep themes of spirituality, love, and human experience. As a key member of the New York-based Pen League and a significant cultural figure, he is considered the third best-selling poet of all time, behind only Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu, leaving an enduring legacy that continues to inspire readers across generations.
