APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Brazilian novelist Paulo Coelho’s international bestseller centres on an Andalusian shepherd who travels far and wide in search of elusive treasure, encountering characters who help him understand his purpose. Lovely and unadorned, The Alchemist is a concise fable born out of the author’s deep-rooted belief that following our dreams is the key to discovering our personal destiny and living a fulfilling life.
