«Der Prophet» is the poetic and spiritual essay by Khalil Gibran, published by dtv Verlagsgesellschaft in paperback (96 pages, in German).
A prophet named al-Mustafa waits in an Eastern city for the ship that will take him back to his homeland. Before he leaves, the people of Orfalís ask him to speak of love, pain, beauty, joy, and all that moves the human being. Al-Mustafa's answers, full of wisdom and mystical depth, unite East and West, Islam and Christianity.
The work was originally published in 1923 as The Prophet. The German translation from English is by Giovanni and Ditte Bandini, and this edition came out in 2003.
This work is an international classic and a common gift book for those interested in spirituality, life wisdom, and inspirational literature.
