About this ebook

Another stunning novel by the author of The Alchemist.

Aleph marks a return to Paulo Coelho’s beginnings. In a frank and surprising personal story, one of the world’s most beloved authors embarks on a remarkable and transformative journey of self-discovery.

Facing a grave crisis of faith, and seeking a path of spiritual renewal and growth, Paulo decides to start over: to travel, to experiment, to reconnect with people and the world. On this journey through Europe, Africa, and Asia, he will again meet Hilal—the woman he loved 500 years before—an encounter that will initiate a mystical voyage through time and space, through past and present, in search of himself.

Aleph is an encounter with our fears and our sins; a search for love and forgiveness, and the courage to confront the inevitable challenges of life.

Ratings and reviews

I'm an Iranian reader, and as Paulo wrote on his blog, the government has banned Paulo's books. But thanks to Dr.Arash Hejazi now we got the free version of this book in Iran. (translated by Arash Hejazi) I read this book and just wanted to say this is an excellent book, like the other books of Paulo, thanks Paulo, thanks Arash Hejazi.

Loved the way of expression of each little things and to make us feel so lively while going through each n every page....👌👍😊

A book that is typical of Coelho. The mojo is not there yet you feel the soul of the author.
