Omschrijving

Kahlil Gibran's "The Broken Wings (Illustrated)" intricately weaves a poignant narrative of love, loss, and the struggle for personal freedom through lyrical prose and evocative illustrations. Set in early 20th-century Lebanon, the novella reflects the cultural backdrop of Gibran's own experiences, illustrating a society bound by tradition and societal expectations. The story follows the tragic romance between the protagonist, a young man named Mansour, and his beloved, Selma, who is constrained by her oppressive marriage. Gibran's fluid style seamlessly incorporates philosophical musings, rich symbolism, and a narrative voice that resonates with the youthful yearning for liberation and self-expression. Kahlil Gibran, a Lebanese-American poet, writer, and philosopher, rose to prominence in the early 1900s, profoundly shaping modern spiritual and literary thought. His diverse upbringing, marked by exposure to both Eastern and Western cultures, deeply influenced his worldview and thematic explorations. "The Broken Wings" showcases Gibran's own grappling with the ideals of love against the harsh realities of societal norms, revealing a depth of personal conviction and understanding that echoes throughout his literary career. This beautifully illustrated edition of "The Broken Wings" is highly recommended for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of love's complexities and the human spirit's resilience. Gibran's timeless prose captures the essence of longing and the quest for freedom, offering readers a rich tapestry of emotion and insight that resonates across generations. Immerse yourself in this captivating work and reflect on the intricacies of love and the forces that seek to bind it.
