50books_pocThe Prophet by Kahlil Gibran
Once in a while a book comes along that manages to be full of thought and soul and somehow stays easy on the eyes.
This book is like a chapter of Okri written in the style of the Bible.
Incredibly readable, accessible and absorbing, it will make your heart feel a little lighter. It flows like poetry. It reads like mythology. I sat down meaning to skim over the back and ended up finishing it in one sitting, migraine be damned.
This is simply beautiful.
