‘‘Your joy is your sorrow unmasked. And the self-same well from which your laughter rises were often times filled with your tears”
When a messiah, the source of infinite wisdom, comes to the fictional town of Orphalese, the people take it as a sign to get their deepest concerns answered. Here was a man who you could tell, “I’ve been jealous”, “I worry about money”, “I cry a lot”, “marriage is difficult for me”, “I feel life is unfair at times”, and not be judged.
Written as a conversation between Almustafa, the prophet, and people of Orphalese, together they explore what spirituality, freedom, family, ambition, failures, success means to everyone.
The Prophet is a highly moving and thoughtful reading experience, like a compassionate friend gently holding your hand through uncomfortable paths of life. Written in a simple yet lyrical way, it brings a sense of soothing and catharsis to the reader.
