[Message from Paulo Coelho]
When I wrote The Alchemist, I was trying to understand the reason for its existence. Rather than making a philosophical agreement, I decided to talk to the boy who existed in my soul. Amazingly, this boy is alive among millions of people around the world. With this book, I want to share with readers the unanswered questions. It turns life into a wonderful adventure.
[Contents of this book]
Santiago, the shepherd boy, had the same dream that night. I had a dream a week ago that there was a treasure hidden in a pyramid. The boy believes in his dream, sells his sheep, and sets off on a journey to Egypt.
Leaving from the plains of Andalusia and crossing the desert, the boy learns the wisdom of life through various encounters and partings with the guidance of a mysterious old man and an alchemist.
"Following omens,'' "listening to your heart,'' and "if you strongly desire something, everything in the universe will work together to help you achieve it.''
What awaited the boy when he finally arrived at the pyramid after a long journey. A story of love and courage that teaches us what is truly important in life.
Paulo Coelho (author), Hiroya Yamakawa (translator), Akiko Yamakawa (translator)
