Uncover timeless wisdom and unlock your spiritual journey with an insightful and inspiring collection of short stories and fables by Paulo Coelho-international bestselling and prize-winning author of The Alchemist

A thought-provoking companion to the landmark literary classic The Alchemist comes Maktub (meaning "it is written"), a stunning collection that invites readers to reflect, rediscover, and find inspiration in life's quiet moments. Perfect for seekers of personal growth, divine faith, healing, and transformation, this national bestseller-from profoundly beloved and bestselling author Paulo Coelho-comes a variety of parables and stories pulled from Coelho's celebrated daily columns. As he explains, "Maktub is not a book of advice-but an exchange of experiences."

Each story-brief yet mighty-delivers lessons rooted in universal truths, weaving together spirituality, humanity, and self-reflection. Drawn from Coelho's experiences with spiritual leaders, friends, and cultural teachings, these stories are crafted to resonate with readers from all walks of life. Some highlights include:
A Talking Snake: A story about understanding deception and finding clarity in the chaos.The Fifth Mountain: Reflecting on perseverance, dedication, and the beauty of small victories in long journeys.A Zen Master and the Disciples: A meditation on balancing responsibility with enlightenment and the dangers of ignoring life's practicalities.The Buddha in Conversation: Practical insights on the value of choice and action in shaping one's destiny.A Mysterious Hermit: A tale that explores the quiet strength in solitude and contemplation....and many more that challenge, inspire, and illuminate.
Whether you're revisiting The Alchemist or newly discovering Coelho's work, Maktub is an invaluable resource for those in search of inner peace and practical guidance, offering daily doses of wisdom for everyday life, accompanied by elegant black-and-white line art-making this both a thoughtful gift and a visual and intellectual feast.

Discover the beauty of life's mysteries and the wisdom of the ages with Maktub.
Autorenporträt
One of the most influential writers of our time, Paulo Coelho is the author of thirty international bestsellers, including The Alchemist, Warrior of the Light, Brida, Veronika Decides to Die, and Eleven Minutes. He is a member of the Brazilian Academy of Letters and a United Nations Messenger of Peace. Paulo is the recipient of 115 international prizes and awards, among them, the Chevalier de l'Ordre National de la Légion d'Honneur (Legion of Honor). Born in Rio de Janeiro in 1947, he soon discovered his vocation for writing. He worked as a director, theater actor, songwriter, and journalist. In 1986, a special meeting led him to make the pilgrimage to Saint James Compostela (in Spain). The Road to Santiago was not only a common pilgrimage but a turning point in his existence. A year later, he wrote The Pilgrimage, an autobiographical novel that is considered the beginning of his literary career. He lives in Geneva, Switzerland.
