The Prophet is “the most famous work of religious inspiration of the twentieth century.” This claim is made on the back cover of this small book which I received as a Christmas present. The claim is at least partially justified for this book has sold 10 million copies world-wide, has been translated into more than 20 languages and, in America is second only to the Bible in sales. But why? What is so special about it? In all honesty – I don’t know. It is difficult to even work out what type of writing it is. Classified by its publishers Penguin under various categories including literature, philosophy, and religion/mythology, The Prophet ...
