SUMMARY:Kahlil Gibran ~ In Search of a Prophet
DESCRIPTION:This event commemorates the 100th Anniversary of the publication of Kahlil Gibran’s The Prophet. \nJoin Paul-Gordon Chandler in conversation with Q&A about his new book\, In Search of a Prophet: A Spiritual Journey with Kahlil Gibran\, exploring the all-embracing spirituality of Kahlil Gibran\, the Lebanese born Arab-American poet-artist\, mystic and best-selling author of The Prophet. \nIn Search of a Prophet is a fascinating journey through the spiritual life of Kahlil Gibran. Paul-Gordon Chandler explores this beloved writer and artist\, a mystic who sought to build bridges and tear down walls. \nIn Search of a Prophet is not a traditional biography\, but a compelling spiritual journey through Gibran’s writings\, art\, and the places he lived. From his birthplace village high in the snowy mountains of Lebanon\, Chandler leads us through his emigration to Boston\, art training in Paris\, career in New York\, and to the far reaching places of influence his writings and art have traveled\, from Cairo to Mexico City.
