Description

This biography of Kahlil Gibran - author of The Prophet and the voice of his Middle-Eastern countrymen - traces the phenomenon of a first-generation immigrant in 20th-century American arts and letters. Lebanon, his family's impoverished years in turn-of-the-century Boston, and his eventual friendship with that city's intellectual elite.
