Trade ReviewI have loved many books over the years, but the one I would never be parted from and read again and again is
The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran . . . Each time I open the book I find myself feeling that if the whole world was to read it, it would be a far better place -- Lesley Pearse * Independent *
