The book discussion group of the Grafton Community Library will be discussing The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho this month at their meeting on Wednesday, January 30, at 12:30 pm at the Library. Copies of the book are available for anyone interested in joining the discussion. The group meets monthly on the last Wednesday of each month to discuss the chosen book. New participants are always welcome.
This timeless and entertaining story, exotic yet simple, is about the faith, power and courage we all have within us to pursue the intricate path of a Personal Legend, a path charted by the mysterious magnet of destiny but obscured by distractions. The reader learns how along the way we learn to trust our hearts, read the seemingly inconspicuous signs and understand that, as we look to fulfill a dream, it looks to find us just the same, if we let it.
Author Paulo Coelho is a Brazilian lyricist and novelist. He has become one of the most widely read authors in the world today and is the recipient of numerous prestigious international awards, amongst them the Crystal Award by the World Economic Forum and France’s Légion d’honneur.
