The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
This book.... wow! I have a strong, personal connection to this novel. I first read it while attending Bronx Haven High School in NY and I feel as though it literally changed my life! It gave me a sense of enlightenment and tapped into a entirely new part of my consciousness. I've read it again and again over the years as it steered me towards an education in philosophy.
I was interested to hear that a favorite actor of mine, Will Smith is a fan of this book as well, there's an interview on YouTube you can watch. Click the link below to order your copy of this life changing book.
