The Alchemist
The Alchemist: A Fable about Following Your Dream by Paulo Coelho
FROM OUR EDITORS
With the help of several enchanted strangers, an Andalusian shepherd boy learns to listen to himself.
FROM THE PUBLISHER
Every few decades a book is published that changes the lives of its readers forever. The Alchemist is such a book. With over a million and a half copies sold around the world, The Alchemist has already established itself as a modern classic, universally admired. Paulo Coelho's charming fable, now available in English for the first time, will enchant and inspire an even wider audience of readers for generations to come. The Alchemist is the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found. From his home in Spain he journeys to the markets of Tangiers and across the Egyptian desert to a fateful encounter with the alchemist. The story of the treasures Santiago finds along the way teaches us, as only a few stories have done, about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, above all, following our dreams.

I like alot of the author's writings. He has a simple sort of writing that dosen't cloud up what he is working to say. This book is all about showing the importance of utilizing experience to get to Understanding. Those who refuse to experience life end up making life a mystery.
Peace
