Aleph by Paulo Coelho

Another beautiful novel through the writer of The Alchemist. Aleph marks a return to Paulo Coelho’s beginnings. In a frank and unexpected personal story, one of the world’s most loved authors embarks on an amazing and transformative adventure of self-discovery.

Facing a grave disaster of faith, and in search of a direction of religious renewal and growth, Paulo makes a decision to begin over: to travel, to experiment, to reconnect with human beings and the world.

On this adventure via Europe, Africa, and Asia, he’s going to again meet Hilal―the girl he cherished 500 years before―and come upon her on the way to provoke a paranormal voyage via time and space, via beyond and present, looking for himself.

Aleph is an encounter with our fears and our sins; a look for love and forgiveness, and the braveness to confront the inevitable demanding situations of life.
