Overview
Traces the influences that shaped Kahlil Gibran, author of the inspirational New Age text The Prophet, which remains an enduring work of the 20th century. He explores Gibran's development from the wounded Romantic and angry young man to his final metamorphosis as the Prophet of New York, following him from the decadence of Boston to the vigor of Greenwich Village in its heyday before the WW1. Though known outwardly for the peace and optimism that permeates his work, Gibran's life was littered with personal tragedy. Tormented by his failure to live up to his own vision of spiritual fulfillment, Gibran ultimately succumbed to the ravages of alcoholism. Illustrated.
