100 Words on Saturday 2014 – # 16
Every moment in life is an act of faith From the book by Paulo Coelho, ‘ Brida’
He is a writer whose books speak to my soul; I get lost in the worlds he creates with his words and find myself pulled into the emotional tides of his eloquence. This prolific writer is Paulo Coelho and his writing has multiple layers, every time I read him, I learn something new.
When I meet him, I want to ask him about his inspiration, who or what is it that brings out such deep and sometimes disturbing emotions in him? Another very important question is about his book, Brida; is she real or a figment of his limitless imagination?
By Sulekha Rawat
Thanks for the introduction, Sulekha!
He is one of my favorite authors.. Love to read about him through your lovely presentation… I wonder about the same things:-)
I’ve never read any of his books, though several friends have mentioned them in the past. I’ll have to look them up!
Sweet and simple. I love his books- esp Alchemist and Eleven Minutes..
He is one of my favourite authors too. I think I would bore him with my questions though 🙂
I have only read his “The Alchemist” and some excerpts from other writings of his. I hope you get a chance to ask him some of your questions, give it a try, maybe you will hear back from him 🙂
I have read just Alchemist, but I know many of my friends are his staunch follower 🙂 I hope he would answer your question some day.
Another favorite of mine and Sulekha it’s a question I’m sure many of us would love to know. Whenever I read Paulo Coelho, I feel speaking to my inner self who is a stranger to the ME…Brida, Valkyries, Aleph and Alchemist are gems:)
