this is one of the books i wish i had read a translation instead of the original. It seems translators did a great work improving both style and correcting grammar and spelling errors. The original in portuguese was almost unreadable when i first read it 30 years ago or so.


One of the best books I have ever read, really powerful. I frequently re-listen to it.


A great torture method is to get someone to finish reading this book. It’s unbearable (and yes, I somehow finished it because I’m a masochist). Just my 2 sats.


Good book indeed ⛰

Fun book


Alchemy is great.  It essentially is trasforming from a lower state to a higher state.  Bitcoin can be considered an example, Satoshi transfomred inert hard drives into precious numbers, and digital gold, via proof-of-work.  Jung and Newton were also great alchemists.

I'm studying one of the great unsolved alchemical texts, which says something similar, and also about language, mathematics and the geometry of conic sections:

That's my favorite book of all time.
Very responsible for the man I am today.


I've probably read this book a 100 times


But is the book really any good?

I've seen a lot of people criticizing his books, although I don't know why...


Esse livro realmente presta?

Já vi muita gente criticando os livros dele, embora eu desconheça a razão...

I see "apple," I don't click... But would love to listen to this if there's a free audio version somewhere


my parents told me to read it


Possibly the best fiction I've ever read imho. The Aleph is really good, too.

i love this book! i think it deserves a reread!


it is written


Tarifa is a cool place


Who is Paulo Coelho?A movie star?


I have read it when I was small. It is one of the thinnest books of all time but has good very good insights. The plot countries are Spain, Morocco, Sahara Dessert and Egypt’s Giza area if I remember correctly. The animals mentioned are sheep, falcon, and camels. The gist of book is when life gives you lemons, make lemonades, don’t throw them away. Don’t fear to dream big and have faith in miracles.


Recommended, the best brazilian writer ever.


Let's go 🚀

maktub in arabic means 'it is written' but it is mostly used in the sense of 'destiny' when something is meant to happen. it means that everything is already written.


Always cool to look back to see how far we have gone.


Worst book Ive ever read


A wonderful read, a fountain of wisdom


This is my favorite fictional story of all time. Read it one morning in 3 hours and did not move til it was done.


everyone should read this book at least once in their lifetime.
life-changing story


Great book, one of my favorites along with "By the River Piedra I Sat Down And Wept".


reminded me of Hesse's Siddhartha.
both great reads!

Awesome, must read!
At 5 years old I dreamed of being Astronaut but ended up doing different things for living. Life is an interesting journey.....
It's more then just doing something for living...it's a destiny

The only conspiracy I can really get behind is the one that conspires in my favor across all of human experience.


Well they call Ozzy Osbourne the Prince of Darkness, then you’ve got MJ Prince of Pop apparently, then you’ve got uh Prince…may as well announce a ‘Prince of Love’ but just not sure how he qualifies for the title…


Reading through the comments, wtf book did y'all read? It was awful. Everyone Ive talked to about it says the same.
