Story4.5 out of 5 stars 297
Almustafa has been exiled in the island city of Orphalese for twelve years when he sees his ship coming with the mist. Before he sets sail, the beloved prophet is asked by his followers to impart his truth. In these twenty-eight poetic essays, he offers profound inspiration on such matters of love and friendship, freedom and self-knowledge, joy and sorrow, pleasure, prayer, and death. In doing so, Almustafa offers a universal serenity. A Lebanese émigré to the United States, Gibran wrote The Prophet to transcend the barriers between East and West.

A perfect spiritual reading, with a perfect voice

I believe The Prophet is one of the greatest spiritual works ever written. It has become my bible. Simon Vance narrates it perfectly. I slowed the audio slightly, just to savor the wonderful words a little more.
