This work contains 14 short stories and poems, that express many of Gibran's key themes: the injustice meted out to the poor and the weak; the beauties of nature needlessly destroyed by man; and the innocent purity of young love, so often crushed underfoot by society.

Reflections in the Mirror,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Storm (Hardcover)
Kahlil Gibran has a way of writing that may touch any individual's thought and evoke musings of the old. Gibran is a poet/philosopher/artist chiefly, and has many works out.
The Storm is a favourite of mine because it is filled with a different kind of parable when compared to The Madman. Stories of the simplest experiences become water into wine experiences. The Storm becomes a work that one will read time and time again. It can be read a million different ways. I recommend either this or The Madman for beginner Gibran fans. Bon appetit.

A beautiful book,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Storm: Stories and Prose Poems (Compass) (Paperback)
I read this book about a year ago, and was struck by the beautiful langiage, and imagery. Gibran writes what the soul sees. I have an extensive collection of his work, and I am very pleased to have this one now in my collection. I would recomend it for anyone interested in how beautifully words can be arranged and written down.

Perfection,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Storm (Hardcover)
The reason that my review is entitled "perfection", is simply because my experience in obtaining a copy of Kahlil Gibran's, The Storm was effortless. Absolutely no complaints!
