The blurb reads:
"Here is the magical story of Santiago, an Adnalusian shepherd boy who years to travel in search of a wordly treasure as extravagent as any ever found. From his home in Spain he journeys to the markets of Tangiers and into the Egyptian desert where a fateful encounter with the alchemist awaits him.
This is a story that teaches us, as only few stories can, about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, learning to read the omens strewn along life's path and above all following our dreams".
I know a lot of people find this book inspiring but I just found it a bit obvious.
The cover art is different from that shown here.

This is going to the winner of the BCUK sweepstake.
I'm hoping you find this as inspiring and soothing as many others do. You might need it with all the journalling and releasing you're going to be doing over the next few days (weeks? months?).

Received in the post yesterday, thank you. A book I've always wanted to read!
Apologies for taking so long to get round to reading this.
A charming little tale, but not the life-changing book that it is hyped up to be.

Very easy book to read but not an author for me.
