Book Reviews of The Pilgrimage (Plus)
Book Review: Powerful, Entertaining, Transforming
Summary: 5 Stars
An autobiographical account of Coelho's own initiation and discovery along the road to Santiago. The book itself is an interesting read for the storyline alone - and the discussion of the perils of the journey, the experience and the lessons learned are worth the read. As always Paulo Coelho's writings are entertaining, easy to absorb at that level, and flow well.
At the next level, the book is a manual of initiation - a roadmap - though incomplete - for making a pilgrimage to self discovery, to entering a path where the destination is far less important than the lessons learned along the way, and where the astute observer will recognize the parallels between a short pilgrimage and a lifelong one. Coelho gose so far as to provide exercises and morsels of lessons for those interested in testing the treading of the path. As in all of Coelho's work, the concept of true love - here discussed in terms of philos, eros and agape - pervades the book and provides extremely powerful insights and meditative points.
A good read on a basic level, a very powerful one on a deeper level
