File description

This book, whose title means â€œthe presentâ€ or â€œunable to go unnoticedâ€ in Arabic, has an initial staggered laydown of eight million copies in 83 countries and 42 languages. It centers on the narratorâ€™s search for his missing wife, Esther, a journalist who fled Iraq in the runup to the present war, only to disappear from Paris; the narrator, a writer, is freed from suspicion when his lover, Marie, comes forward with a (true) alibi. He seeks out Mikhail, the man who may be Estherâ€™s most recent lover and with whom she was last seen, who has abandoned his native Kazakhstan for a kind of speaking tour on love. Mikhail introduces the narrator to a global underground â€œtribeâ€ of spiritual seekers who resist, somewhat vaguely, conventional ways of living. Through the narratorâ€™s journey from Paris to Kazakhstan, Coelho explores various meanings of love and life, but the impact of these lessons is diminished significantly as they are repeated in various forms by various characters. #pdf
