Chatting Books Online Year 2, Day 105. I think today is a good day to look back at what we recommended a year ago today to see if it stands the test of time and if I would recommend it again today . So last year on July 1 I recommended the following and the answer is yes - still recommend ! Chatting Books Online Day 109 . Today I want to recommend The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. This mystical little book is the story of Santiago an Andalusian boy who sets out on a journey to find treasures and ends up teaching us so many lessons not the least of which is to always follow our dreams .
In the 32 years since it was originally published this book has appeared on The New York Times Best Sellers List no less than 315 times ! It has been translated into 80 languages making it the most translated book by any living author . At only 208 pages it is not a long book and you will get so much out of these pages but the simplicity of the book and the story is part of it’s beauty and it’s message.
We carry the book in paperback for $16.99 a copy .
