About this ebook

Seven years of reflections, journeys and meetings: the revelation of a fascinating philosophy of life. Paulo Coelho is an enchanting storyteller, inspiring people all over the world to see beyond the ordinary and into the remarkable. Like the Flowing River is a compilation of tales, opinions and ideas drawn from articles published in various newspapers. This path took me to many places and caused me to change countries more often than I changed shoes, as Bertolt Brecht used to say. The pages that follow contain accounts of some of my own experiences, stories other people have told me, and thoughts I ve had while travelling down particular stretches of the river of my life. - Paulo Coelho

    Inspirational. This book set me back to the right path. The lessons I learned and re-learned through Paulo Coelho is really life changing. I really feel emotional not to the point of tears though especially when he shared the story about reaching one's dreams. I'm a bum right now eagerly waiting for the time to go to Law school and sometimes when I feel like I'm being left behind by my prior classmates who are now seeking for their careers, I just remember the story about the mountain thinking that all this waiting is just part of the game, part of my dream.

    Just a re-hash of short stories on the web. Nothing much to go on here. I think this is a case of great writer running out of good stuff to write about. Somewhat tragic, if you think about it.

    Reread after several years. Had kept teh book because there are so many powerful thoughts and observations, mostly by Paolo but also quoted from many others.
