Description

Por el autor de El alquimista, transforma tu vida. Reescribe tu destino.

En su novela más personal hasta la fecha, Paulo Coelho regresa con una extraordinaria historia de autodescubrimiento. Al igual que el personaje principal de su gran novela El Alquimista, en Aleph Paulo se enfrenta a una grave crisis de fe. En busca de renovación y crecimiento espiritual, decide comenzar de nuevo: viajar, experimentar y volver a conectarse con el mundo y las personas.

Empezando en África, y recorriendo Europa y Asia en el tren Transiberiano, Paulo inicia un viaje para revitalizar su energía y su pasión. Aún así, nunca espera conocer a Hilal, una joven violinista a la que amó 500 años antes --y la mujer a la que traicionó en un acto de cobardía tan grande que todavía le impide encontrar la verdadera felicidad en esta vida. El encuentro dará inicio a un viaje místico a través del espacio y del tiempo, del pasado y del presente, en busca del amor, el perdón y el coraje necesario para superar los inevitables desafíos de la vida.
Apasionante e inspiradora, Aleph nos invita a considerar el significado de nuestras vidas: ¿Estamos donde queremos estar, haciendo lo que queremos hacer?

Algunos libros se leen. Aleph se vive.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Another stunning novel by the author of The Alchemist.
Transform your life. Rewrite your destiny.
Aleph marks a return to Paulo Coelho's beginnings. In a frank and surprising personal story, one of the world's most beloved authors embarks on a remarkable and transformative journey of self-discovery.
In his most personal novel to date, internationally bestselling author Paulo Coelho returns with a remarkable journey of self-discovery. Like the main character in his much-beloved The Alchemist, Paulo is facing a grave crisis of faith. As he seeks a path of spiritual renewal and growth, his only real option is to begin again--to travel, to experiment, to reconnect with people and the landscapes around him.
Setting off to Africa, and then to Europe and Asia via the Trans-Siberian railroad, he initiates a journey to revitalize his energy and passion. Even so, he never expects to meet Hilal. A gifted young violinist, she is the woman Paulo loved five hundred years before--and the woman he betrayed in an act of cowardice so far-reaching that it prevents him from finding real happiness in this life. Together they will initiate a mystical voyage through time and space, traveling a path that teaches love, forgiveness, and the courage to overcome life's inevitable challenges. Beautiful and inspiring, Aleph invites us to consider the meaning of our own personal journeys.
