The Broken Wings is a poetic novel written by Kahlil Gibran and first published in Arabic in 1912. It is a tale of tragic love, set in turn-of-the-century Beirut. Evocative, beautifully written and full of stunning imagery, it is also a compelling commentary on the plight of women and many other social issues of the time. About the author: Kahlil Gibran (1887-1931) was a Lebanese-American artist, poet, and writer. He is the third best-selling poet of all time, behind Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu. He is chiefly known in the English speaking world for his 1923 book The Prophet, a series of philosophical essays written in English prose. An early example of 'inspirational fiction', the book sold well and became extremely popular in the 1960s. This English Rose book is a high quality, well formatted edition.

Khalil Gibran (January 6, 1883 – April 10, 1931) was a Lebanese-American artist, poet, and writer of the New York Pen League. Born in the town of Bsharri in the Mount Lebanon Mutasarrifate, Ottoman Empire (north of modern-day Lebanon), as a young man he immigrated with his family to the United States, where he studied art and began his literary career, writing in both English and Arabic. In the Arab world, Gibran is regarded as a literary and political rebel. His romantic style was at the heart of a renaissance in modern Arabic literature, especially prose poetry, breaking away from the classical school. In Lebanon, he is still celebrated as a literary hero. He is chiefly known in the English-speaking world for his 1923 book The Prophet, an early example of inspirational fiction including a series of philosophical essays written in poetic English prose.
