Product Description
Product Description
For Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931), no single religious tradition revealed the whole truth, so he wove together insights from Eastern Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, American Transcendentalism and the folklore of his native Lebanon to create his own universal 'Anthem of Humanity'.

This book is exactly what is says on the tin...
One of the kind of books that can be picked up at different times in your life and will tell you something pertinent to your circumstance.
It is beautifully insightful and poetically lyrical. It is accessible too, the translation is a good one.
I find it a great friend when I am travelling.

I love this book!
8 Aug 1999
Format:Hardcover
Each short is unique and beautiful. The way he articulates, the metaphors he uses, the message he puts forth....It all comes together and just makes you smile! And I smiled and nodded my head while reading most of this book. I couldn't put it down. I read it straight through in one sitting, and I'm about to go through it again. I really felt this book and learned a great deal from it. From the first sentence of the first reflection and on from there I was and still am captivated.

Only one Gibran

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Purchased this for a young man who enjoyed the book. He loved it, said it was well written. I've read Gibran for over 30 years. I went on to purchase all the books in this series from Amazon, who delivered fast.
