Young shepherd, Santiago, is in his search for his Personal Legend, similar to man’s struggle to break free from the restrictions of conformity and pursue dreams. Santiago’s adventures challenge you to think about your goals; to get in touch with your “rebel nature”; to answer your Personal Legend. His journey is inundated by setbacks, testing his commitment. However, by paying attention to the synchronicity of events, they guide him closer to his goal.
Santiago is an alchemist in his own right when he turns misfortune into riches. The author is a great storyteller and weaves a great parable in The Alchemist.
It is an amazing story that speaks to your own Personal Legend, a quest; “When you pursue your personal legend the universe will conspire with you to make it happen.”

I read this book a while back and I too loved it. Not all of my reads earn the right for a permanent spot on my book shelf, but this one has.

This book is a fanciful telling of the spiritual and emotional journey we all embark upon in finding out our true selves in life. I recommend it to anyone who is willing to look within to find their true calling in life.

Simple yet brilliant. I've read it twice in the past year and can't wait to read it again. Its one of the best books to read for motivation in going after your dreams fearlessly.

This is one of the first Paolo Coelho books I've read and I've been hooked ever since. The alchemist is his signature book and weaves in a spiritual journey that a boy makes during his travels in the quest to discover his dreams. Fantastic read. Enjoy.x
