Gibran said: "I think I've never been without THE PROPHET since I first conceived the book back in Mount Lebanon. It seems to have been a part of me. . . . I kept the manuscript four years before I delivered it to my publisher because I wanted to be sure, I wanted to be very sure, that every word of it was the very best I had to offer."
Never out of print, THE PROPHET, illustrated with the author's drawings, has been translated into over a hundred different languages and has achieved cult status for several generations
