The Prophet represents the acme of Kahlil Gibran's achievement. Writing in English, Gibran adopted the tone and cadence of King James I's Bible, fusing his personalised Christian philosophy with a spirit and oriental wisdom that derives from the richly mixed influences of his native Lebanon.His language has a breath-taking beauty. Before returning to his birthplace, Almustafa, the 'prophet', is asked for guidance by the people of Orphalese. His words, redolent with love and understanding, call for universal unity, and affirm Gibran's certainty of the correlated nature of all existence, and of reincarnation. The Prophet has never lost its immediate appeal and has become a ubiquitous touchstone of spiritual literature.

Kahlil Gibrans klassiker PROFETEN har lige siden udgivelsen i 1923 berørt mennesker verden over og tillige været en af det 20. århundredes mest citerede bøger.PROFETEN er et lyrisk værk, som på samme tid udtrykker et klarsyn og en dyb spiritualitet. Bogen fortæller om menneskelivets store sandheder, erfaringer og følelser: kærlighed, død, frihed, religion, fornuft og lidenskab, men også om mere jordbundne emner som love, forbrydelser og straf.Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931) var en libanesisk-amerikansk forfatter, lyriker og kunstner. Han blev født i Libanon, men boede siden 1912 fast i New York."Han skriver en slags kombineret prosalyrik, filosofi og personlig bekendelse, dunkel i tanken, men klar i sproget, fuld af eksotisk skønhed og visdom." – C.
