[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: Harper Collins Publ. UK], ZUSTAND: Sehr gut, textsauber (keine Anstreichungen oder Markierungen). Wie schon im 'Alchemist', greift Paulo Coelho erneut das Thema der Pilgerschaft auf, doch dieses Mal erzählt er eine ganz andere Geschichte, in der es um Liebe, Verlust und Leidenschaft und Obsession geht. Biografie Paulo Coelho, geboren 1947 in Rio de Janeiro. Alle seine Romane, insbesondere Der Alchimist, Veronika beschließt zu sterben, Elf Minuten und zuletzt Die Schriften von Accra, sind Weltbestseller, wurden in 80 Sprachen übersetzt und erreichten eine bisherige Weltauflage von über 165 Millionen Exemplaren. Seine Reflexionen und die Themen seiner Bücher regen weltweit Leser zum Nachdenken an und dazu, ihren eigenen Weg zu suchen. Pressestimmen 'Coelho's writing is beautifully poetic but his message is what counts... he gives me hope and puts a smile on my face.' DAILY EXPRESS 'His books have had a life-enhancing impact on millions of people.' THE TIMES 'One of the few to deserve the term "Publishing Phenomenon".' THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY 'Coelho's talent to inspire his readers with wisdom and hope, while offering them an insight into the struggle that everyone encounters in their journey through life, is as strong as ever. There is a forgiving kindness and humanity that is unmistakeable and tremendously appealing.' DAILY MAIL Synopsis With more than 30 million copies sold, "The Alchemist" is one of the best loved and bestselling books in the world. "The Zahir", Paulo Coelho's new novel, is a perfect follow-on to "The Alchemist". Paulo picks up the theme of the pilgrimage but tells a very different, gripping story of love, loss and passionate obsession. It begins with a glimpse or a passing thought. It ends in obsession. One day, a renowned author discovers that his wife, a war correspondent, has disappeared leaving no trace. Though time brings more success and new love, he remains mystified - and increasingly fascinated - by her absence. Was she kidnapped, blackmailed, or simply bored with their marriage? The unrest she causes is as strong as the attraction she exerts. His search for her - and for the truth of his own life - takes him from France to Spain, Croatia and, eventually, the bleakly beautiful landscape of Central Asia. More than that, it takes him from the safety of his world to a totally unknown path, searching for a new understanding of the nature of love and the power of destiny. With "The Zahir", Paulo Coelho demonstrates not just his powerful and captivating storytelling, but also his extraordinary insight into what it is to be a human being in a world full of possibility.

Rezensionen: "Fascinating tale about love that exists above classic notions of possession, faithfulness and and physical togetherness. Beautifully written, this novel takes you from France to Mexico, Brazil, Switzerland and all the way to Kazakhstan, always adding little observations on culture and humanity in the process. It may be titled a novel of obsession, but rather it seems to be a novel about true love... real love that defies the paradigm of how one should love in the societies of today and outlasts the weaknesses of human nature. Anyone with a romantic side will appreciate this book, whether it serves as a reminder of moments passed or as a glimmer of hope for the future." "Eine toll geschriebene Geschichte, vorausgesetzt das Thema an sich bewegt einen. Auch wenn ich ansonsten nur nichtfiktional unterwegs bin, hat mich dieser Roman doch gefesselt - allein das ist mir 5 Sterne wert..." "Paulo coelho's best book" "An excellent book, which gives you contradicting but objective arguments in different situation. It never becomes boring, a thoughtful creation." "Wer "Alchemist" und "Vorinika beschließt zu sterben" gelesen hat und liebte wird auch dieses Buch gut finden. Die Hauptthemen blieben die gleichen, das Buch ist aber, glaube ich, etwas mehr autobiographisch als die anderen. Es geht um Liebe, Schicksal, Sinn des Lebens und Selbstfindung. Coelho entführt uns wieder in eine Welt wo alles von einer Hand geschrieben wurde, und wo jeder seinen Weg finden kann wenn er nur auf die Zeichen und auf sein Herz hört. Oder brauchen wir vielleicht gar nicht entführt zu werden um dorthin zu gelengen..." Nichtraucherhaushalt. Verpackung sicher und stabil in Luftpolster-Versandtasche.
