Produktbeschreibung
Miserable is the man who loves a woman and takes her for a wife, pouring at her feet the sweat of his skin and the blood of his body and the life of his heart, and placing in her hands the fruit of his toil and the revenue of his diligence; for when he slowly wakes up, he finds that the heart, which he endeavoured to buy, is given freely and in sincerity to another man for the enjoyment of its hidden secrets and deepest love. Miserable is the woman who arises from the inattentiveness and restlessness of youth and finds herself in the home of a man showering her with his glittering gold and precious gifts and according her all the honours and grace of lavish entertainment but unable to satisfy her soul with the heavenly wine which God pours from the eyes of a man into the heart of a woman.

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.
