I recently finished reading this book by Paulo Coelho. It's a classic and a must read for book lovers. It's a great book contain story of a shepherd who travels to find treasure for his life. in his journey he learns all the lessons of life from different people at different places.
All the lessons he learn has a sense of spirituality. The book will change the way you approach life and make decision you have never done before and do sacrifices you can only imagine in your dreams. Once you read 30 to 50 pages, you will start appreciating the book. For those saying the story was not worth it have failed to completely understand the book.
Santiago, a sheperd boy, has the same dream twice. He sees treasure hidden near the pyramids of Egypt. He then embarks on a journey to find the treasure and fulfill his destiny. Along his way are many ups and downs. He is robbed of all his savings, is led off track, desires to quit his quest, finds companionship and love, and learns to trust his heart. He learns to understand the'language of the universe', 'language of the dessert', language of the wind' and'the soul of the world'. That's not something I can describe here.it's something that can be understood- but not put into words.
