description: Of all the books of this author, The Prophet has perhaps the widest appeal. Because of its immense popularity since its publication in 1923, it is offered in this compact and companionable format.The Chicago Post said of it: "Truth is here; truth expressed with all the music and beauty and idealism of a Syrain untouched by the harshness of life. Cadenced and vibrating with feeling, the words of Kahlil Gibram bring to one's ears the majestic rhythm of Ecclesiastes. . . ."
