About this product
Product Information
Paulo Coelho's enchanting novel has inspired a devoted following around the world. This story, dazzling in its powerful simplicity and soul-stirring wisdom, is about an Andalusian shepherd boy named Santiago who travels from his homeland in Spain to the Egyptian desert in search of a treasure buried near the Pyramids. Along the way he meets a Gypsy woman, a man who calls himself king, and an alchemist, all of whom point Santiago in the direction of his quest. No one knows what the treasure is, or if Santiago will be able to surmount the obstacles in his path. But what starts out as a journey to find worldly goods turns into a discovery of the treasure found within. Lush, evocative, and deeply humane, the story of Santiago is an eternal testament to the transforming power of our dreams and the importance of listening to our hearts.Product Identifiers

Not so GOOD quality
The book I received was very bad shaped. Front cover was ripped and poorly typed over and also many of hand writing notes all over the pages. This shouldn’t be categorized as “GOOD”

Insightful reading
This is a very good book. If you overlook the fact that it teaches pantheism, the premise of the plot is very compelling. I reluctantly purchased this book on advise that it was insightful and good ideas could be gleaned from it's story line. To that end I do concur and recommend this book for interesting reading. I found it hard to put down and read it in its entirety in two sittings. Works very well in a counselling type sitting. I do not regret purchasing or reading this book one bit.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
