Description

I have to say that I doubt it, but I did laugh a few times and the over the top syrupy delivery made me wonder, and maybe I liked it better considering this twinkle of a third possibility. I also didn’t really like the ending. Sure it is riffing on the whole “it’s the journey not the destination” aspect but it felt a bit flat for me with the deus ex machina moment. It is a happy ending though, and one full of success and rewards. As a bookclub member pointed out, it sort of resonates with a quote by T.S. Eliot: ‘ We shall not cease from exploration And the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time.’

As the alchemist himself says when he appears to Santiago in the form of an old king "when you really want something to happen, the whole universe conspires so that your wish comes true". This is the core of the novel's theme. Isn't it true that all of us want to believe the old king when he says that the greatest lie in the world is that at some point we lose the ability to control our lives, and become the pawns of fate.urn:lcp:alchemik0000coel:epub:de36fb12-4427-4039-8a1e-04edb66c7361 Foldoutcount 0 Identifier alchemik0000coel Identifier-ark ark:/13960/t3332s57g Invoice 1652 Isbn 8391723917

When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.” Das, Mohua (October 20, 2009). "Santiago's journey: Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist Breezes Through Town". Telegraph India . Retrieved November 17, 2021.Patel, Fashutana (April 18, 2009). "I saw the Bhagvad Gita in The Alchemist: Ashvin Gidwani". mid-day.com. Jagran Prakashan Ltd. Archived from the original on June 6, 2019 . Retrieved November 17, 2021. La obra maestra más aclamada y famosa de Coelho por lejos; un muy corto relato alegórico sobre escuchar tu corazón, y seguir tus sueños, sin importar qué. Particularmente disfruté los intercambios con el misterioso viejo rey, el tiempo que transcurrió con el mercader de cristales, y el encuentro con Fátima, la chica del desierto. El oasis y el encuentro con el Alquimista fue bueno, pero se sintió un poco demasiado increíble, y sus enseñanzas un tanto repetitivas. Aun así, una considerable cantidad de citas y momentos para el recuerdo; con unas muy interesantes vueltas de trama, un sublimemente satisfactorio final, y un mensaje espiritualmente elevador. Recuerdo disfrutar esta novela corta enormemente en su día, la maravillosa sensación de asombro lamentablemente gradualmente disminuyendo con el correr de los años. Sin embargo, no me arrepiento de haberla leído; esta fue por sobre todo una valiosa lectura, y memorable, a pesar del llamativo tinte de autoayuda. Me gustó conocer la “Leyenda Personal”, entre otros curiosos conceptos esotéricos. Recomendable, para la audiencia correcta.
