The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran

Each generation discovers anew the philosophical poetry and wisdom of the Prophet, as he addresses many aspects of our daily lives. For decades this has been one of America's bestselling books. An excellent gift for all ages.

Kahlil Gibran was a Lebanese essayist, novelist, poet, and artist. He was born in Lebanon in 1883, but moved to America with his mother and four siblings in 1895, where he enrolled in art classes in Boston. After spending two years studying art in Paris, Gibran’s artistic and literary career began. The Prophet published in 1923 achieved worldwide fame, and has never been out of print since.
