«Der Prophet» is the poetic and philosophical work by Khalil Gibran, published by Patmos Verlag in paperback (72 pages, in German).
In a city of the East, the prophet Almustafa awaits the ship that will take him back to his land. Before departing, the inhabitants of Orfalís ask him to speak one last time about love, pain, beauty, joy, and other questions that move human beings. His answers, written in a poetic prose full of symbols and metaphors, condense a vital and mystical wisdom.
Work originally published in English in 1923 under the title 'The Prophet'; this German edition, translated by Karin Graf, appeared in 1998.
Reference work for readers interested in spirituality, poetry, and universal classics.
