The Forerunner

The Forerunner is a collection of philosophical and spiritual essays written by Kahlil Gibran, a Lebanese-American poet, writer, and artist. The book is divided into two parts: The Prophet and The Madman. In The Prophet, Gibran explores themes of love, marriage, children, friendship, work, and death through a series of poetic and reflective essays. The Madman, on the other hand, delves into deeper philosophical questions about the nature of reality, the meaning of life, and the human condition. The essays are written in a lyrical and poetic style, with vivid imagery and metaphors that evoke a sense of wonder and contemplation. The Forerunner is a timeless classic that continues to inspire readers with its profound insights into the human experience.""My mate shall come riding on the waves. His thundering roar shall fill the earth with fear, and the flames of his nostrils shall set the sky afire. At the eclipse of the moon we shall be wedded, and at the eclipse of the sun I shall give birth to a Saint George, who shall slay me.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
