About this listen

Another stunning novel by the author of The Alchemist.

Aleph marks a return to Paulo Coelho’s beginnings. In a frank and surprising personal story, one of the world’s most beloved authors embarks on a remarkable and transformative journey of self-discovery.

Facing a grave crisis of faith, and seeking a path of spiritual renewal and growth, Paulo decides to start over: to travel, to experiment, to reconnect with people and the world. On this journey through Europe, Africa, and Asia, he will again meet Hilal—the woman he loved 500 years before—an encounter that will initiate a mystical voyage through time and space, through past and present, in search of himself.

Aleph is an encounter with our fears and our sins; a search for love and forgiveness, and the courage to confront the inevitable challenges of life.

I don't know what to make of it. Is it fiction? Science fiction or a myth?

A universal story to help humanity understand.

A story I sense holds meaning for my own life. A symbolic connection that brings understanding.

A spiritual journey

I have read most of Paulo Coelho's books and I liked this very personal story of a journey on the transibirian railway. Although the story is quite difficult to believe and is certainly not as good as others, the narration was very enjoyable. I have enjoyed listening to it as I do not feel I would have had the patience reading it.

Life is the train not the station.

Another amazing book from an amazing man. It has been a long long time that I have enjoyed and be captivated and transformed by a book. The narrator made this book alive, his tone of voice while been the different characters was extraordinary. Thank you, thank you to have share such beautiful story with us.

Another jewel from the Master!

It’s been awhile since I’ve read anything by Paulo and this latest book has spiked my interest again to reread them all! Thank you for your wisdom and insights, they keep me connected when I feel lost and alone.
