Alluring tale that continues to inspire

Reviewed by Punit. product Posted on: 06/04/2012

Alchemist is an effervescent novel that takes you on a remarkable journey of a young boy who is all set to pursue his dreams. With all the travelling, the author mesmerizes you with immemorable and highly-inspiring quotes. Some of my favourite ones are:
->"People are capable, at any time in their lives, of doing what they dream of"
->"You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it's better to listen to what it has to say"
->"Don't give in to your fears. If you do, you won't be able to talk to your heart" and many others.
The book is bound to leave a charm on every reader.

The Alchemist: 70% Philosophy, 30% story

Reviewed by Velu. product Posted on: 27/12/2011

I would say "The Alchemist" has a story in the philosophy rather having a philosophy in the story.
I felt "The Alchemist" is not bad at the same time not good.
