the vision5
kahlil gibran is a master at provoking the senses with his metaphysical poetry. this book delves into the human condition within relationships and gives the reader a unique perspective from several points of view. it's rare to find an author with this kind of depth and profound awareness.

I love this book!5
Each short is unique and beautiful. The way he articulates, the metaphors he uses, the message he puts forth....It all comes together and just makes you smile! And I smiled and nodded my head while reading most of this book. I couldn't put it down. I read it straight through in one sitting, and I'm about to go through it again. I really felt this book and learned a great deal from it. From the first sentence of the first reflection and on from there I was and still am captivated.
