The Review:

The Alchemist is a treasure of life lessons. This book contains and references to lessons that appear to be a comment on ethics and metaphysics, history and anthropology, post-colonialist critique, and folk tale all at once. Biblical parallels abound, alongside Islamic lectures on the nature of God, and institutions and mysticism are equally likely to be invoked and revoked. There's always the impression that something is hovering beneath the surface while you read, but the moment you attempt to capture it or express it in a review, it appears to vanish and I was never completely satisfied with what it is. I felt I know this story and what was happening but it was just an illusion and this book is an original work of art that comes to life through the words that are passing through the reader’s mind.

I had no idea this book would be so good. But at first, I thought it was just another book hyped by people who wanted to be part of the popular group, but I'm glad I was wrong and decided to read it. I never imagined a book could have such an impact on me. It's a simple story, but it's packed with lessons if you look for them, and it's short enough to read in one sitting. Only a few books have had such an impact on me, and one of them is "The Book of Flying," which I also highly recommend.

I read this book a long time ago and recently had the opportunity to listen to the audio version, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I also recommend the audio version to fans because I am confident you will enjoy it as well.

Some people dislike this book because they never understood it and the simple words that are actually very deep to the point where these people were never able to reach the depth. So, disregard the complaints and a few low marks and read or listen to the book, and be amazed at its simplicity, which can be as deep as you want it to be. But as you go deeper, your eyes widen and you begin to see the true messages that this novel has to offer.

This book has a lot of valuable lessons to offer. It ultimately boils down to pursuing your ambitions and taking calculated risks in the process. When you decide to follow your aspirations, the entire world conspires in your favor, which the author refers to as "beginners luck," which we have all experienced at some time in our lives. He also talks about a period in our road toward fulfilling our aspirations when everything goes horribly wrong and everything works against us, nearly forcing us to forsake everything and return to what was once so intimately acquainted.

Final Thoughts:

This is one of those stories that you don't want to come to an end. A journey of self-awareness and the discovery of hidden strength and potential that everyone possesses but not everyone can recognize. I discovered a great coming-of-age story and a man's constant struggle to find the hidden treasure that was always his from the beginning.

A must-read for everyone, just to understand what it's all about, and it may help you discover your own self, which has been hiding inside you since the beginning.


Synopsis:

“Paulo Coelho's enchanting novel has inspired a devoted following around the world. This story, dazzling in its simplicity and wisdom, is about an Andalusian shepherd boy named Santiago who travels from his homeland in Spain to the Egyptian desert in search of treasure buried in 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 along the way but what starts out as a journey to find worldly goods turns into a meditation on the treasures found within. Lush, evocative, and deeply humane, the story of Santiago is art eternal testament to the transforming power of our dreams and the importance of listening to our hearts.”
