Editorial Reviews
Publisher Comments
Lyrical and dynamic, free from the rhetorical flourishes common in traditional Middle Eastern literature, Kahlil Gibrans early short stories, prose poems, and vignettesall written in Arabicmade a profound impact on his fellow immigrants in America and on his fellow writers in his native region long before The Prophet made him a best-selling English author in 1923. Now White Cloud Press has launched a series of contemporary translationsdesigned to replace the generally inaccurate ones issued after his death in 1931of Gibrans most significant work. Publishers Weekly --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Book Description
Broken Wings tells the tale of a love doomed by the restrictions of a cruel society. The narrative highlights many of Gibran's concerns about the plight of Eastern women, wealth as an impediment to happiness, the greed and corruption of the clergy, and the overwhelming power of love.
