A global phenomenon, The Alchemist has been read and loved by over 62 million readers, topping bestseller lists in 74 countries worldwide. Now this magical fable is beautifully repackaged in an edition that lovers of Paulo Coelho will want to treasure forever. Every few decades a book is published that changes the lives of its readers forever. This is such a book a beautiful parable about learning to listen to your heart, read the omens strewn along lifes path and, above all, follow your dreams. Santiago, a young shepherd living in the hills of Andalucia, feels that there is more to life than his humble home and his flock. One day he finds the courage to follow his dreams into distant lands, each step galvanised by the knowledge that he is following the right path: his own. The people he meets along the way, the things he sees and the wisdom he learns are life-changing. With Paulo Coelhos visionary blend of spirituality, magical realism and folklore, The Alchemist is a story with the power to inspire nations and change peoples lives.

  1. Den bästa
    Kristina B, 31 december 2015

    En av de allra bästa böcker jag läst, och har läst om den flera gånger, med någon månad och något års mellanrum. Finner alltid något nytt, man ändrar sig själv och tar till sig något nytt varje gång man läser den. Har gett bort flera stycken i present också. Rekommenderar den å det varmaste.

  2. Förändrat mitt liv!
    Mia Emgård, 11 oktober 2002

    Boken är lättläst och själklar men samtidigt den mest filosofiska och eftertänksamma bok jag läst. Boken har gett mig så otroligt mycket att jag ger den till alla jag känner, och tar gärna med den istället för en flaska vin till värdinnan/värden på en middag. Tankeprocessen som börjar när man läser boken slutar inte för att boken är färdigläst, utan är ständigt pågående. Den är i högsta grad applicerbar på ens eget liv.

    Kort sagt, ska du välja en bok att ta med dig till en öde ö - VÄLJ DENNA!!

Recensioner i media

His books have had a life-enhancing impact on millions of people. THE TIMES One of the few to deserve the term Publishing Phenomenon. INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY Coelhos writing is beautifully poetic but his message is what counts he gives me hope and puts a smile on my face. DAILY EXPRESS I love The Alchemist. OPRAH WINFREY The Alchemist is a beautiful book about magic, dreams and the treasures we seek elsewhere and then find on our doorstep. MADONNA "I feel like the luckiest man on the planet. It's a dream come true for me," to be able to direct and star and bring Coelho's book to the screen." LAURENCE FISHBURNE on the upcoming film adaptation of The Alchemist "One of my favourite books is The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, and I just believe thatI can create whatever I want to create. If I can put my head on it right, study it, learn the patternsI feel very strongly that we are who we choose to be." WILL SMITH "When I'm on the set with young actors and sometimes you meet people in life who you feel they are a little confused and they want to be re-centered, there are two books that I always recommend. One of them is Siddhartha, and the other is The Alchemist. RUSSELL CROWE
