Kahlil Gibran considered
The Prophet his greatest achievement. He said: ‘I think I’ve never been without
The Prophet since I first conceived it in Mount Lebanon. It seems to have been a part of me….I kept the manuscript four years before I delivered it over to my publisher, because I wanted to be sure, I wanted to be very sure, that every word of it was the very best I had to offer.’
The Chicago Post said of
The Prophet: ‘Cadenced and vibrant with feeling, the words of Kahlil Gibran bring to one’s ears the majestic rhythm of Ecclesiastes….If there is a man or woman who can read this book without a quiet acceptance of a great man’s philosophy and a singing in the heart as of music born within, that man or woman is indeed dead to life and truth.’
