Información sobre este audiolibro
"The Prophet" by Khalil Gibran is a profoundly spiritual and philosophical collection of poetic essays that has captivated readers worldwide with its timeless insights into the human condition. Set against the backdrop of a fictional Middle Eastern village, the narrative unfolds through the character of Almustafa, the titular prophet, who, on the eve of his departure after twelve years of exile, shares his deep reflections on life, love, sorrow, joy, and mortality with the townspeople. Each essay addresses essential aspects of life—from marriage and parenting to work and freedom—offering wisdom that seeks to uplift the spirit and enrich the soul. Gibran's eloquent prose is both lyrical and accessible, making profound philosophical concepts resonate with readers of all backgrounds. The book not only explores the trials and tribulations of individual existence but also delves into the communal and universal truths that bind humanity together, making "The Prophet" a cherished classic in modern literature.
Acerca del autor
Khalil Gibran was a Lebanese-American writer, poet, and visual artist, born on January 6, 1883, in the town of Bsharri in what is now modern-day Lebanon. Emigrating to the United States in 1895, Gibran settled in Boston's Lebanese immigrant community. He wrote both in English and Arabic, and his work often melds elements of Western and Eastern spiritualities and philosophies. Gibran is best known for his book "The Prophet," a series of poetic essays that achieved monumental global success. His writings explore themes of love, freedom, and the human spirit, and his style is noted for its lyrical, inspirational qualities. Gibran's influence transcends literary circles, impacting the cultural and philosophical landscape of the 20th century. He passed away on April 10, 1931, in New York City, but his legacy continues to inspire readers worldwide.
