The book was great, the cover , quality is nice. I got bookmark along with it. I enjoyed reading the book.

This novel, "The Prophet" by Kahlil Gibran, contains 28 poetic essays with 12 illustrations drawn by the author himself. This book took more than 11 years to be formulated and perfected and is known as Gibran's best work to date. The author simply touched on the depths of many topics that we can relate to very easily right from birth to death. His knowledge and understanding of life and its surroundings are great, which he penned down captivatingly and vivified with feelings.

"The Prophet" is basically a philosophical prose poetry. It is actually a prose,contentwise but when you actually read it,you find yourself reciting those lines in the book like you recite a poem. I also tend to call it a spiritual friction as this book holds an enriching experience in itself . The language used is an ancient old English literature,so you kinda find it difficult to understand the words. I had to browse many of the words to grasp them well. . The plot of the book goes like a man called The Prophet has to leave the country in which he has been presently residing to go back to his native place. At the time of his departure, people of this country asks him questions about many facets of life. The answers to these questions are very beautifully given and I personally felt teaches the mysteries of way of life. The book comprises of twenty six(26) poetic essays which talks man's relation with fellow men and mastery of life. It includes the concepts of freedom,love,marriage,children,laws,joy and sorrow, death and many more. . Reading this book feels like meditating. You donot just read what's written in, you actually observe what's in the book. I felt like this is a life story of every human on earth. Though a short read, I took it very long to complete it,still I donot feel like I have observed everything that the book had to give. If you want to look over life with a spiritual eye,you gotta definitely give this a read. ~Maleka Jabeen.

Firstly, I was drawn towards this book from another person who quoted this book in his Autobiography. (Wings of Fire, APJ Abdul Kalam) This book has truly drawn my attention towards various aspects of life and I really enjoyed reading the poetry. So much wisdom and teaching for such a low price !! This book definitely has something to offer to everyone from all walks of life. Whether you are a Housewife or a Businessman or a student, this book has something for you. I personally had this little talk in my mind over every philosophy mentioned in the book. All of it truly convinces my mind, except one. For all the reasons I tried to think and debate with myself, I do not agree with the Author's opinion on Crime and Punishment. The author says that the oppressed is not innocent from the crimes of guilty. Victim is not innocent of the crimes of oppressor. Here is my take on this, you leave your keys in the car is not an invitation for a thief to steal it. Except for this one chapter, which I do not endorse. Rest of the philosophy is completely genuine and practical and I definitely recommend you to read this book atleast thrice to get the real feel of it. I come back to this book and read specific chapters whenever I am having some issues with that aspect of my life. I encourage you to do the same. Hope my review and opinion helps. Cheers !!

The book is a beautiful enlightenment of various aspects of life . Highly recommended for some sagacious reading . However the book is a little bent on the corners and idk why I think it is a duplicate edition . The delivery got delayed too. Ergo a good book to read but in average quality.

I'll first talk about the material and then about the product (edition). Material. I have this practice when i'm reading a book i underline those great and catchy phrases and sentences.Trust me I didn't underline a single word in this book.Not because nothing was great,but because everything was great.Each and every word Phrase, and sentence is handpicked and the whole prose is fine crafted to perfection. This is gonna touch your heart, that too very deep and will make you think for hours maybe even days. One of the greatest piece of spiritual fiction and prose poetry ever written. The true master piece from kahlil Gibran.That's all about the material. Product. Coming to this very product ,this is the greatest edition a work like this can afford at this rate.This material truly deserve a presentation like this.The book cover and the whole presentation itself is a piece of true art.Also 16 paintings of Khalil Gibran has been reproduced from the original book which is also great and thought provoking.The ideal piece for collection and gifting. Truely worth the price...

Book in very good condition 🙂

Perfect! Wanted a new hard copy of this classic ♥️

Not a total stranger to The Prophet, we bought this time as gift to a friend; hopping that they will find a good companion in this wonderful book, maybe you should gave it a look

A book of wisdom that’s poetic and reads like beautiful music. I love it for the vocabulary. I found myself reading it just to meditate on the sheer beauty of the words. A masterpiece.

The pages quality is very thin and cheap, and they are stuck together. This is a great book, but a very bad deluxe print edition.

I seriously think this might be the most beautiful book ever written. I gasped at every page. Just, beautiful beautiful literature. What a precious book.
