About This Item
Synopsis
A prophet has is about to board a ship home after 12 years in exile, when he is stopped by a group of people.

The work has been a bestseller since its first publication.
Reviews
The Prophet is a book that has been around for a long time, but it is still relevant today. The thoughts about marriage and children are so insightful and poetic. It is a pleasure to 'dip into' sections of this book, and gain some understanding of the human condition.
