Summary: SEQUEL: The Prophet Returns
Review: In addition to publishing this version of The Prophet illustrated with enticing drawings by Aubrey Beardsley, we also published the sequel THE PROPHET RETURNS written more recently by G. Schaule, which tells the story of the prophet's later life, love, and teachings, an enchanting tale for our times. It is available through the same distributors.

Summary: My favorite book
Review: This classic is my favorite gift book. I treasure it myself, and find its words always moving and thought provoking, moving one towards self-inquiry. This book enables one to look beyond the ordinary into a deeper more spiritual aspect of what appears to be mundane.

Summary: Misty eyed I read on ...
Review: To accurately gauge the type of person who would enjoy "The Prophet", please read the earlier review written by a person who is obviously a fruitcake. I felt "obliged" to read this back in the early '70s by some misty eyed lover of spirituality. I can't even remember the gender of this seeker after spiritual truth. I know that I only read about 2 or 3 pages and prepared my "review" for the next time I met up with this seeker. Please, you must have something better to do with your time than read "The Prophet". Go do it!
