About the author

Khalil Gibran (1883- 1931) was a Lebanese artist, poet, and writer who wrote in both English and Arabic. In the Arab world, Gibran is regarded as a literary and political rebel. His romantic style was at the heart of a renaissance in modern Arabic literature, especially prose poetry, breaking away from the classical school. In Lebanon, he is still celebrated as a literary hero. Gibran's mysticism is a convergence of several different influences: Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, Sufism, Judaism and theosophy. He wrote: 'You are my brother and I love you. I love you when you prostrate yourself in your mosque, and kneel in your church and pray in your synagogue. You and I are sons of one faith—the Spirit.' Gibran's books have been translated into most of the world's languages. Gibran was also an accomplished artist, especially in drawing and watercolor. Gibran believed in the fundamental unity of religions
