Like the Flowing River

How does a pencil reveal the path to happiness? What can a falcon teach us about anger? And how do we climb the mountain of our own dreams? In Like the Flowing River, Paulo Coelho invites us to explore these questions and more. A breathtaking collection of his personal reflections, fables, and encounters from 1998 to 2005, this is Coelho at his most intimate - sharing the wisdom gathered from a life lived fully and a world observed closely.

Why This Book Matters

It is a testament to the idea that life has lessons for us in the greatest, smallest, and most unusual of experiences. Whether you are a longtime admirer of Coelho or new to his work, this collection will touch you with its philosophy and invite you to go on an exciting journey of your own.
