This book is amazing. Every person should read it for sure.

This novel, "The Prophet" by Kahlil Gibran, contains 28 poetic essays with 12 illustrations drawn by the author himself. This book took more than 11 years to be formulated and perfected and is known as Gibran's best work to date. The author simply touched on the depths of many topics that we can relate to very easily right from birth to death. His knowledge and understanding of life and its surroundings are great, which he penned down captivatingly and vivified with feelings.

The book was great, the cover , quality is nice. I got bookmark along with it. I enjoyed reading the book.

"The Prophet" is basically a philosophical prose poetry. It is actually a prose,contentwise but when you actually read it,you find yourself reciting those lines in the book like you recite a poem. I also tend to call it a spiritual friction as this book holds an enriching experience in itself . The language used is an ancient old English literature,so you kinda find it difficult to understand the words. I had to browse many of the words to grasp them well. . The plot of the book goes like a man called The Prophet has to leave the country in which he has been presently residing to go back to his native place. At the time of his departure, people of this country asks him questions about many facets of life. The answers to these questions are very beautifully given and I personally felt teaches the mysteries of way of life. The book comprises of twenty six(26) poetic essays which talks man's relation with fellow men and mastery of life. It includes the concepts of freedom,love,marriage,children,laws,joy and sorrow, death and many more. . Reading this book feels like meditating. You donot just read what's written in, you actually observe what's in the book. I felt like this is a life story of every human on earth. Though a short read, I took it very long to complete it,still I donot feel like I have observed everything that the book had to give. If you want to look over life with a spiritual eye,you gotta definitely give this a read. ~Maleka Jabeen.

Good purchase

Firstly, I was drawn towards this book from another person who quoted this book in his Autobiography. (Wings of Fire, APJ Abdul Kalam) This book has truly drawn my attention towards various aspects of life and I really enjoyed reading the poetry. So much wisdom and teaching for such a low price !! This book definitely has something to offer to everyone from all walks of life. Whether you are a Housewife or a Businessman or a student, this book has something for you. I personally had this little talk in my mind over every philosophy mentioned in the book. All of it truly convinces my mind, except one. For all the reasons I tried to think and debate with myself, I do not agree with the Author's opinion on Crime and Punishment. The author says that the oppressed is not innocent from the crimes of guilty. Victim is not innocent of the crimes of oppressor. Here is my take on this, you leave your keys in the car is not an invitation for a thief to steal it. Except for this one chapter, which I do not endorse. Rest of the philosophy is completely genuine and practical and I definitely recommend you to read this book atleast thrice to get the real feel of it. I come back to this book and read specific chapters whenever I am having some issues with that aspect of my life. I encourage you to do the same. Hope my review and opinion helps. Cheers !!

Book in very good condition 🙂

Perfect! Wanted a new hard copy of this classic ♥️

Not a total stranger to The Prophet, we bought this time as gift to a friend; hopping that they will find a good companion in this wonderful book, maybe you should gave it a look

The pages quality is very thin and cheap, and they are stuck together. This is a great book, but a very bad deluxe print edition.

I seriously think this might be the most beautiful book ever written. I gasped at every page. Just, beautiful beautiful literature. What a precious book.

This book has sold millions of copies and has been translated into over a hundred languages—and rightfully so. First published in 1923, The Prophet still holds up today as a beautiful work of literary art. Told in 26 short prose-poem chapters, it follows the prophet Al Mustafa in the city of Orphalese. As he prepares to depart on the ship that will carry him home, the people of Orphalese gather to seek his wisdom on a variety of life’s deepest topics. The lyrical prose is elegant and evocative, painting vivid pictures with words. The edition I read also featured Kahlil Gibran’s artwork, which is fantastic—hauntingly beautiful and fluid. I listened to the audiobook version while reading along over several days as a way to slowly process and immerse myself in the text. Though short in page length, it is rich and weighty in message. A beautiful masterpiece and a must-read for any literary enthusiast. Favorite quotes: “The timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness. And knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream.” “Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.” “And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair” “In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things, does the heart find its morning and is refreshed.” My enjoyment 5+/5
