Chronicle Concering Books The Wanderer

Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931) was a Lebanese American of Assyrian descent, an artist, poet and writer. He was born Gibran Khalil Gibran in Lebanon (at the time a Syrian Province of the Ottoman Empire) and spent much of his productive life in the United States. While most of Gibran's early writings were in Syriac and Arabic, most of his work published after 1918 was in English. Gibran also took part in the New York Pen League, also known as the "immigrant poets" (al-mahjar), alongside other important Lebanese American authors such as Ameen Rihani ("the father of Lebanese American literature"), Mikhail Naimy and Elia Abu Madi. Gibran's best-known work is The Prophet, a book composed of 26 poetic essays, first written in English in 1923. The Prophet remains famous to this day, having been translated into more than 20 languages. Other works in English include: Spirits Rebellious, (1908), The Broken Wings (1912), A Tear and a Smile (1914), The Forerunner (1920), Sand and Foam (1926), Jesus the Son of Man (1928), The Earth Gods (1929), The Wanderer (1932) and The Garden of the Prophet (1933).

Discuss Based On Books The Wanderer

And often I have heard them discuss and disagree over the shape and size of my footprints. For there are some who say, These are the tracks of a mammoth that roamed the earth in the far past. And others say, Nay, these are places where meteors have fallen from the distant stars.But you, my friend, you know full well that they are naught save the footprints of a wanderer.

I loved the simple yet intense way all of these stories connected to my life. I really needed to read this book at that exact moment in my life! Very insightful!

"There is no need for us to cease our singing for the comfort of those who must needs fill their emptiness with noise" (pg. 46)Finished shortly before his death in 1931 The Wanderer is described by Barbara Young as, "woven in the very fabric of Eastern thought" and devoid of the West. I found that to be true in that Gibran borrows heavily from many familiar religious traditions, most of which are of Eastern origin. Gibran should be read slowly and digested fully. It isn't that his work is so

It contains small stories and poems full of moral wisdom with a sense of universality. One thing that I liked most was the word-play at which Zibran had a mastery. Reading sentences is like falling in love with him.

A collection of parables.Some are thought provoking,others not easy to comprehend.

An excellent set of parables that have a way deeper meaning. It always makes me wonder how Kahlil Gibran can weave such beautiful stories with such simplicity.

One of my favorite Gibran titles. With the words of this book I a deeply moved and taken with him in his journey. His poetical wisdom is always deeply connected with life.
