from the back:
"This is the story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who dreams of travelling the world in search of a treasure as extravagant as any ever found. From his home in Spain he journeys to the exotic markets of Tangiers and then into the Egyptian desert, where a fateful encounter with the alchemist awaits him.
'The Alchemist' is a transforming novel 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."

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Yay! Got his book in the mail today as a RABCK! What an awesome surprise! Thanks so much Maju30. I'm sure I'll enjoy it. I wanted to read another Coelho book since I read Veronika Decides to Die earlier this year.
I finished reading this book last week. It was an interesting 'parable' or fable type story. There are many life lessons about following your dreams and your "destiny".
