Aleph - Paulo Coelho






I'm a fat fan of Paulo Coelho's novels, not of his memoirs/ journeys esp that of 'his magical traditions'. This book depicts the cause n effects of the author's long tedious journey undertaken to escape from his spiritual ennui. He meets the girl he had loved n betrayed 500 years ago and they enter The Aleph n get a clear vision of their past. The girl condones all his sins - of past n present - and he returns home a brand new man. The first half of the narration is simply exhausting and the rest is quite racy n thrilling.

This autobiographical account can be valuable n beneficial for those who believe in signs, reincarnations n Aleph. 

Aleph is the universe; we are the universe; therefore we are The Aleph. Why search somewhere else?
