Samenvatting:

The Prophet is the most well-known work of spiritual fiction of the twentieth century, and it is based on Kahlil Gibran's own experience as an immigrant. It is a source of inspiration for anybody who feels lost in a changing world. A group of people stop a prophet named Almustafa as he is ready to board a ship to return to his homeland after twelve years in exile. They urge him to impart his wisdom before he leaves. He does so in twenty-eight poetry essays, delivering profound and timeless insights on love, suffering, friendship, family, beauty, religion, joy, sadness, and death, among other topics.
