The Prophet

Translated into more than twenty languages, The Prophet, a treasury of counsel on human life, has given uplift and balm to millions around the world. Author Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931), Lebanese poet, philosopher and artist, accompanies the work with his visionary drawings. Gibran’s Prophet speaks, among many things, of eating and drinking, work and play, possessions, crime, and love and death-haunting words of wisdom in a masterpiece likely to be with us always.
