📱 eBook en inglés THE BROKEN WINGS (WITH ORIGINAL ILLUSTRATIONS)

In Kahlil Gibrans poignant novella, "The Broken Wings," readers are invited into a lyrical exploration of love, sacrifice, and the struggles of the soul. Written in Gibrans signature poetic prose, the narrative unfolds a tragic yet deeply resonant love story between the young poet, Michael, and his beloved, Selma, whose potential is stifled by societal constraints. The work stands as a critique of the oppressive forces of the early 20th-century society, interweaving philosophical reflections with Gibrans original illustrations that enhance the aesthetic experience and emotional depth of the text. This blend of narrative and visual artistry creates an immersive literary tapestry that engages heart and mind alike. Kahlil Gibran, a Lebanese-American writer and artist, drew from his own experiences of exile and cultural dislocation to inform his worldview. Born in 1883 in modern-day Lebanon, Gibran immigrated to the United States as a child, experiencing firsthand the tensions between personal aspirations and socioeconomic challenges. His rich appreciation for beauty, spirituality, and freedom is mirrored in "The Broken Wings," reflecting both his personal tragedies and broader societal critiques. This beautifully illustrated edition of "The Broken Wings" is not only a work of art but also a profound meditation on the nature of love and freedom. It is recommended for readers who seek to explore the complexities of human relationships, as well as those who appreciate a poetic and philosophical examination of the hearts yearnings. Gibrans timeless themes remain relevant, inviting both introspection and inspiration.
