For over a century, readers have turned to The Prophet when life asks its biggest questions. Kahlil Gibran’s luminous masterwork speaks directly to the heart—about love that sets you free, children who belong to tomorrow, work that becomes worship, and the bittersweet beauty of joy and sorrow walking hand in hand.
Set against the backdrop of a farewell, the prophet Al-Mustafa shares his wisdom with those gathered at the harbor. Through 26 prose poetry fables, Gibran explores the essential truths of human existence: marriage and friendship, freedom and reason, pain and passion. His words feel both ancient and immediate, like wisdom whispered by the sea itself.
What makes this slim volume extraordinary is its universal resonance. Translated into over 100 languages, it stands as one of the most translated books in history—a testament to how deeply these truths echo across cultures and generations. Whether you’re seeking comfort during change, guidance in uncertainty, or simply beautiful language that elevates the everyday, you’ll find it here.
This edition from the Hero Classics series brings Gibran’s transformative work to a new generation of seekers and dreamers. Perfect for:
