62732X1 Philosophical Library, New York: 1965. 101 pages. Hardcover with dustjacket. Reading copy. This collection of distinctive writings from the pen of Kahlil Gibran has been rendered into English by Joseph Sheban, himself a Lebanese residing in the United States. From the wealth of poetic prose by the latter-day prophet of the Middle East, Mr. Sheban has selected some of the most meaningful, yet unfamiliar. This volume is prefaced by a biographical study of Gibran which delves into the background of the author, and assesses those personal, historical and literary influences which helped shape his work. Of particular interest is the discussion of the women in Gibran's life, both in Lebanon and during his final years in America. $6.25USD
