It was when I fell in love with a man. I’m a male and it was weird since that I am not gay. I asked a friend of mine for advise. He told me after listening to the whole story of my feelings that it is... Read complete review |  Read 630 times |  Comments (2)

Does Zahir means Babel?
By: code11 | Nov 15, 2007 10:56 PM

I know Coelho will not write a book just to send a message but may be ,he will do the same to confuse the reader. So is seemed to be true in case of Zahir. It isn’t expected from the writer of Alchemist.... Read complete review |  Read 794 times |  Comments (2)

waste of time
By: chiclets1979 | Jun 22, 2007 02:05 AM

Like everyone else, I thought that write of The Alchemist would produce some quality writing. Its such a bogus plot. I felt as if it has been written by somone who was lost in his own mind and did not... Read complete review |  Read 789 times |  Comments (5)

The Zahir--a confused plot!!
By: mshilpam | Jan 02, 2007 02:49 PM

After reading Alchemist, I had lot of expectations from this book. But alas, it disappointed me ina big way. Not only was the writing weak, even the spiritual content that one expects to find in Coehlo’s... Read complete review |  Read 1349 times |  Comments (1)

Great Book..
By: Soldier_of_Fortune Member's photo available | Nov 27, 2006 07:38 PM

I think its the longest book by Paulo, as far as I know, but it worths its size, though the main storyline is not suchthat it shouldtake such a long length, but it is very beautifully filled here and... Read complete review |  Read 1241 times |  Comments (3)

By: Kevin22 | Jun 14, 2006 03:59 PM

This book is horrible. I could write an extremely long-winded review of this book, but it doesn’t even deserve it.The author took his tried and tested formula for writing spirituality books and... Read complete review |  Read 1134 times |  Comments (0)

Not great
By: 4321234 | Jun 05, 2006 01:52 AM

The book is repetitive. The plot is really weak. Coelho has said this stuff in other books and he says it again, this time in a less elegant fashion. I also think that having the protagonist fall in... Read complete review |  Read 1098 times |  Comments (0)

Search that never ends
By: lokesh_sharmar | Jun 02, 2006 12:50 PM

Let me start off by saying one thing, if it would not have been for The Alchemist (by the same author), very few people would have picked up this book for reading. Although, it cannot be compared... Read complete review |  Read 1094 times |  Comments (0)

Where's my Zahir?
By: Psychotropic Member's photo available | Apr 19, 2006 03:39 AM

I really have to thank my mother for introducing me to this author. I’ve read most of his books and he seems to answer a lot of questions to which I had no answers to for a very long time. His books aren’t... Read complete review |  Read 1969 times |  Comments (3)

“THE ZAHIR”, is a first of its kind for the author. After writing some brilliant stuff, he aces it all in his own inimitable style. The backdrop for his previous works, Alchemist and The Fifth... Read complete review |  Read 1001 times |  Comments (1)

Could have been better. Really?
By: shreyas83_au Member's photo available | Jan 10, 2006 12:49 PM

The most interesting thing about The Zahir is the identity of the central character of the story who goes in search of his wife. The central character seems to be the reflection of Paulo Coelho himself.... Read complete review |  Read 2224 times |  Comments (0)
