Maktub

An Inspirational Companion to The Alchemist

De: Paulo Coelho

Narrado por: Edoardo Ballerini

An essential companion to the inspirational classic The Alchemist, filled with timeless stories of reflection and rediscovery.

From one of the greatest writers of our age comes a collection of stories and parables unlocking the mysteries of the human condition. Gathered from Paulo Coelho’s daily column of the same name, Maktub, meaning “it is written,” invites seekers on a journey of faith, self-reflection, and transformation. As Paulo Coelho explains, “Maktub is not a book of advice—but an exchange of experiences.”

Each story offers an illuminated path to see life and the lives of our fellow people around the world in new ways, allowing us to tap into universal truths about our collective and individual humanity. As Coelho writes, “a man who seeks only the light, while shirking his responsibilities, will never find illumination. And one who keep his eyes fixed upon the sun . . . ends up blind.” These wise tales offer the perspective of talking snakes, old women climbing mountains, disciples querying their masters, Buddha in dialogue, mysterious hermits, and many saints addressing the mysteries of the universe.

Following the path of his previous internationally bestselling works, this thoughtful collection of short, inspirational pieces, introduced in a foreword by the author, will engage seekers of all ages and backgrounds.

Ready for more to ponder!

Mr Coelho blessed the world with The Alchemist. I believe Maktub, and it’s release date are for the generation of us who found ourselves in The Alchemist. We who found an unwavering love for life, living it, and the pursuit of our personal legend, like Santiago. This is a story Paulo awoke in a record number of people! Many of us, likely returned to The Alchemist many times from “then” until “now”. It is my belief that Maktub is a wonderful companion for we ready to have more understanding of beautiful learnings and diverse metaphors, representing everyday miracles, the callings on Our lives, and the shared struggles. It has the potential to enliven we who’ve read The Alchemist, towards our truest roots, at a seemingly turbulent time in our world. Thank you Mr Coelho, worker of parables and warrior of the Light!
