Description

The Forerunner: His Parables and Poems by Kahlil Gibran is a lyrical collection of parables and prose poems that continue his exploration of spiritual truth, human nature, and societal hypocrisy. Presented through wise fools, silent sages, and symbolic figures, Gibran contrasts outer conformity with inner awakening. With poetic grace and quiet satire, he addresses love, humility, freedom, and the soul’s journey toward enlightenment. A spiritual companion to The Prophet and The Madman, this work deepens Gibran’s call to awaken the heart, question dogma, and live with compassion, courage, and self-knowledge. A quiet revolution in verse.

Author

Kahlil Gibran (1883–1931) was a Lebanese-American poet, writer, and artist whose work crossed East and West. He is best known for The Prophet, a book of poetic essays on love, work, freedom, and sorrow that has sold millions of copies worldwide since its publication in 1923. His voice — lyrical, aphoristic, and spiritual without doctrine — made him one of the most widely read authors of the twentieth century.
