The many thousands who know and love Gibran's great poem 'The Prophet' will delight in this new selection of his inspirational writings, drawn from prose, poetry, letters, essays and dramatic poems composed over the course of his life and previously available only to readers of Arabic. Each text in its own way invites reflection and meditation. The theme running through the pieces is love - a love that is coloured with both tears and smiles. Gibran's passions for the first woman he loved, his youthful visions, his compassion for inspiring collection that is pervaded above all by the poet's strong sense of mysticism. Gibran's very soul is encapsulated in a book that transcends all barriers of race or creed and reaches out to touch the inner being of its readers. It will enthral all those for whom 'The Prophet' is a treasured work to turn to in moments of joy, sorrow or contemplation, and is a perfect sequel to 'The Eye of the Prophet', a previous collection of Gibran's writings available from Souvenir Press.

Review:
--Chicago Post Praise for The Eye of the Prophet "In these writings Kahlil Gibran takes us out of the wilderness into the joys and sorrows of everyday urban life. More personal and political than The Prophet, the book nonetheless sings with Gibran's lyricism and abiding wisdom."
--Wes "Scoop" Nisker, author of Crazy Wisdom, co-editor of the Buddhist journal Inquiring Mind
"This book shows once again why the writings of Kahlil Gibran have been such a rich source of spiritual inspiration in our modern world."
--Jacob Needleman, author of An Uknown World, The Wisdom of Love, and The Heart of Philosophy
