This book is more an autobiography than the novel I was expecting after having read a number of Paulo Coelho’s other books. For me it came across as an indulgence and was not as thought-provoking as I had hoped it would be. There are some interesting parts. One reminded me that our skills and talents do not always come from something we love. They may be an escape from something we fear.
Unless you are into past loves and past lives, don’t buy it. Borrow it from the library and then decide if you want to own it and re-read it.
