About this ebook
And think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course.” From social issues to human concerns; from the tragedy and power of love to the longings of the soul; from good and evil to crime and punishment; from happiness and sorrow to life and death; from inner beauty to dreams and mysticism; Kahlil Gibran' s poems, parables, aphorisms, and stories are a source of timeless wisdom.
This book is a priceless collection of some of his most notable works including The Prophet, The Wanderer, The Madman, and The Broken Wings. The third best-selling poet of all time after
Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu, Gibran continues to enlighten his readers through his celebrated works.
Kahlil Gibran
Kahlil Gibran was a Lebanese-American writer, poet, and a philosopher best known for his, The Prophet. Born to a Maronite-Christian family in a village occupied by Ottoman rule, Gibran and his family immigrated to the United States in 1895 in search of a better life. Studying art and literature, and inevitably ensconced in the world of political activism as a young man dealing with the ramifications of having to leave his home-land, Gibran hoped to make his living as an artist. With the weight of political and religious upheaval on his shoulders, Gibran's work aimed to inspire a revolution of free though and artistic expression. Gibran's, The Prophet has become one of the best-selling books of all time, leaving behind a legacy of accolades and establishing him as both a literary rebel and hero in his country of Lebanon. Gibran is considered to be the third best-selling poet of all time, behind Shakespeare and Lao Tzu.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Although I am not religious, this collection struck a chord in me. There are so many wonderful passages, poetic lines and prose-poetry, that it makes it hard not to like, and admire, the collection entirely. Gibran was obviously a very talented writer, and artist too (as we can see his art in this collection) and together, with the right mind-frame, I was able to even enjoy The Prophet (which I had previously read in a different translation) to new heights. This is a collection for all those who admire good writing, as well as writing that tries to touch the innermost boundaries of the soul.4.5 stars- definitely recommended!
