Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931), poet, philosopher and artist, was born in Lebanon. His fame and influence spread far beyond the Near East, where millions of Arabic-speaking people consider him the genius of his age. In America, where he lived for the last twenty years of his life, he began to write in English, and his books of poetry, illustrated with mystical drawings, are now known all over the world.

The Prophet is Gibran's masterpiece.

First published sixty years ago, it has been translated into many languages and has sold millions of copies, becoming one of the most beloved classics of our time. Gibran's drawings have been compared to those of William Blake.
