A crisp clean softcover, no markings throughout: Every few decades a book is published that changes the lives of its readers forever. The Alchemist is such a book. With over a million and a half copi es sold around the world, The Alchemist has already established itself as a modern classic, universally admired. Paulo Coelho's charming fable, now av ailable in English for the first time, will enchant and inspire an even wid er audience of readers for generations to come. The Alchemist is the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found. From his home in Spain he journeys to the markets of Tangiers a nd across the Egyptian desert to a fateful encounter with the alchemist. The story of the treasures Santiago finds along the way teaches us, as only a few stories have done, 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.

Coelho, Paulo The Zahir: A Novel of Obsession
HarperCollins August 23, 2005 0-06-082521-9 / 9780060825218 Hardcover Fine/Fine
A highly collectible first edition/printing, protected in a new brodart wra pper. The press chat cites 65 million copies of Coelho's eight previous novels in print, making the Brazilian author one of the world's bestselling novelists (150 countries and 56 languages). This book, whose title means "the present" or "unable to go unnoticed" in Arabic, has an initial staggered laydown of eight million copies in 83 countries and 42 languages. It centers on the narrator's search for his missing wife, Esther, a journalist who fled Iraq in the runup to the present war, only to disappear from Paris; the narrator, a writer, is freed from suspicion when his lover, Marie, comes forward with a (true) alibi. He seeks out Mikhail, the man who may be Esther's most recent lover and with whom she was last seen, who has abandoned his native Kazakhstan for a kind of speaking tour on love. Mikhail introduces the narrator to a global underground "tribe" of spiritual seekers who resist, somewhat vaguely, conventional ways of living. Through the narrator's journey from Paris to Kazakhstan, Coelho explores various meanings of love and life, but the impact of these lessons is diminished significantly as they are repeated in various forms by various characters. Then again, 65 million readers can't be wrong; the spare, propulsive style that drove The Alchemist, Eleven Minutes and Coelho's other books will easily carry fans through myriad iterations of the ways and means of amor.

Coelho, Paulo Witch of Portobello
HarperCollins Publishers April 2007 0-06-134995-X / 9780061349959 Paperback Fine
Multimillion-seller Coelho (The Devil and Miss Prym, etc.) returns with ano ther uncanny fusion of philosophy, religious miracle and moral parable. The Portobello of the title is London's Portobello Road, where Sherine Khalil, aka Athena, finds the worship meeting she's leading-where she becomes an o mniscient goddess named Hagia Sophia-disrupted by a Protestant protest. Fra med as a set of interviews conducted with those who knew Athena, who is dea d as the book opens, the story recounts her birth in Transylvania to a Gyps y mother, her adoption by wealthy Lebanese Christians; her short, early mar riage to a man she meets at a London college (one of the interviewees); her son Viorel's birth; and her stint selling real estate in Dubai. Back in Lo ndon in the book's second half, Athena learns to harness the powers that ha ve been present but inchoate within her, and the story picks up as she acqu ires a "teacher" (Deidre O'Neill, aka Edda, another interviewee), then disc iples (also interviewed), and speeds toward a spectacular end. Coelho veers between his signature criticism of modern life and the hydra-headed altern ative that Athena taps into. Athena's earliest years don't end up having mu ch plot, but the second half's intrigue sustains the book.

Coelho, Paulo Zahir, The: A Novel of Love, Longing and Obsession
HarperCollins 2005 0-00-721362-X / 9780007213627 Paperback Near Fine
With more than 30 million copies sold, "The Alchemist" is one of the best l oved and bestselling books in the world. "The Zahir", Paulo Coelho's new no vel, is a perfect follow-on to "The Alchemist". Paulo picks up the theme of the pilgrimage but tells a very different, gripping story of love, loss an d passionate obsession. It begins with a glimpse or a passing thought. It e nds in obsession. One day, a renowned author discovers that his wife, a war correspondent, has disappeared leaving no trace. Though time brings more s uccess and new love, he remains mystified - and increasingly fascinated - b y her absence. Was she kidnapped, blackmailed, or simply bored with their m arriage? The unrest she causes is as strong as the attraction she exerts. H is search for her - and for the truth of his own life - takes him from Fran ce to Spain, Croatia and, eventually, the bleakly beautiful landscape of Ce ntral Asia. More than that, it takes him from the safety of his world to a totally unknown path, searching for a new understanding of the nature of lo ve and the power of destiny. With "The Zahir", Paulo Coelho demonstrates no t just his powerful and captivating storytelling, but also his extraordinar y insight into what it is to be a human being in a world full of possibilit y.

Coelho, Paulo Zahir, The: A Novel of Love, Longing and Obsession
HarperCollins 2005 0-00-720431-0 / 9780007204311 Paperback Fine
The Zahir, Paulo Coelho's new novel, is a perfect follow-on to The Alchemis t. Paulo picks up the theme of the pilgrimage to Santiago but tells a very different, gripping story of love, loss and passionate obsession. The prota gonist of this new novel is a renowned author who writes about spirituality and once went on pilgrimage along the road to Santiago. On a return visit, he is suddenly abandoned by his wife, who leaves no trace of herself behin d. As the story unfolds the author becomes obsessed with understanding the reason for her desertion. The title comes from a tale by Jorge Luis Borges, published in his book The Aleph. In Arabic Zahir means 'visible, present a nd unable to go unnoticed.' It refers to something or someone that ends up being the only thing we can think of. This state of 'possession' can be und erstood as saintliness or insanity, with a fine line between the two. The n ovel is also full of comments on what it is to be rich and famous, on the m eaning of money, on what motivates a writer and on the nature of marriage.
