Prophet: The Life And Times of Kahlil Gibran

by RobinWaterfield (Author)

Synopsis

In this biography, Robin Waterfield traces the influences that have shaped Gibran, from the decadence of the fin-de-seicle Boston to the vigour of Greenwich Village in its heyday before World War I. He explores Gibran's development from wounded Romantic and angry young man to his final metamorphosis as the prophet of New York.
