From the Back Cover:
This collection of thoughts by Kahlil Gibran, author of "The Prophet", "The Broken Wings", "The Voice of the Master", and other twentieth-century classics, demonstrates three major aspects of his genius.
About the Author:
Here is the fiery prophet, assailing the corruptions of Syrian governmental and upper social circles with the wrath and scorn of Biblical seers.
Here, too, is the poet of love, apostrophizing beauty, youth and nature, particularly the wonderful vistas of Lebanon, with its cedar groves and mountains, in poetry of passionate tenderness.
And above all, here is the author of the remarkable poetic narratives in which Gibran's mystical, spiritual vision of the transmigration of souls is embodied in tales of lovers tragically parted in one existence and rapturously reunited, after centuries of separation, in a later incarnation.
The spiritual message of the great Lebanese prophet and poet is conveyed with exceptional beauty and power in these sensitive writings.
Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931) was a Lebanese poet, philosopher, artist, and writer. The millions of people familiar with his work consider him the genius of his age.

Book Description Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Reprint. Hardback. Shelf wear and a couple of small tears to edge of D/J. Price clipped. Translated from the Arabic by Anthony R. Ferris. This volume of writings by Kahlil Gibran, the Lebanese mystic and author of The Prophet, contains examples of three aspects of his genius. There is the impassioned fighter against politics, for Gibran the embodiment of corruption, injustice and ignorance. In a series of evocative allegories he imagines, against a background of the evils of modern society, the world as it might be if it were governed by reason and understanding. There is the poet of love, whose wonderful responsiveness to the beauties of nature is expressed in sensuous and delicate prose and verse. perhaps the most impressive amoungts all Gibrhan's writings are his mystical, visionary poems, describing the transmigration of souls, through tales of lovers tragically parted in one existence and reunited after centuries of separation in a later incarnation. 112 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
