About the Book

Esta extraordinaria colección de parábolas e historias continúa el camino del El Alquimista para guiar a sus lectores hacia la reflexión y el autoconocimiento.

Dice Paulo Coehlo: «Maktub no es un libro de consejos, sino un intercambio de experiencias». De uno de los autores más leídos de nuestra era, llega este imperdible clásico contemporáneo. Maktub —que en árabe significa «está escrito»— surge de la colaboración de Paulo Coelho con el imporante periódico brasilero Folha de S. Paulo, donde por un año publicó una columna diaria con el mismo nombre. Cada una de estas historias, inspiradas por las tradiciones, el folclor y la sabiduría de distintas culturas de todo el mundo, invita a los lectores a emprender un viaje de fe, autorreflexión y transformación. Un camino que nos enseñará a ver el mundo de otras maneras y a conectarnos con nuestra propia humanidad, colectiva e individual.

«Todos los caminos van al mismo lugar. Pero escoge el tuyo, y ve hasta el final. No intentes recorrer todos los caminos» —de Maktub.

Esta lectura sencilla, amena e inspiradora captará el interés de lectores de todas las edades e intereses, ya sea que busquen una continuación para El Alquimista o quieran adentrarse por primera vez en el maravilloso mundo de uno de los narradores más queridos de nuestro tiempo.

Biography

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.
