    Writer, artist and philosopher Kahlil Gibran considered The Prophet to be his greatest achievement. First published in 1923, this collection of poetic essays on life and the human condition has been translated into more than 20 languages, and has become one of the beloved classics of our time. Cherished by millions, the universally inspiring words of The Prophet are here magnificently read aloud.

    Story

    The Prophet is Gibran???s masterpiece, a wonderful blending of timeless wisdom with beautiful poetry. I???ve read the book and have heard other audio versions, but this recording by the late Paul Sparer is without equal.

    The best-selling author of Into the Wild, Into Thin Air, and Under the Banner of Heaven delivers a stunning, eloquent account of a remarkable young man's haunting journey. Like the men whose epic stories Jon Krakauer has told in his previous bestsellers, Pat Tillman was an irrepressible individualist and iconoclast. In May 2002, Tillman walked away from his $3.6 million NFL contract to enlist in the United States Army.

    Daniel says: "Good book, painful narration"
    "Just another anti-Bush soap box."

    Story

    This might have been a very interesting book if Krakauer stayed with the story of Pat Tillman, a truly unique and inspiring individual. Unfortunately however, Krakauer exploits his legacy as an opportunity to numb the reader with a 13-hour anti-republican rant. So far removed from the early brilliance of Krakauer's "Into Thin Air," this was a serious disappointment. Save your audible credits for something entertaining or enlightening.
