La quinta montana / Paulo Coelho ; traducción de Montserrat Mira.

Coelho, Paulo, (author.). Mira, Montserrat, (translator.).

Summary:

""Más ambiciosa que El Alquimista. Una historia que nos hace reflexionar". TIME magazine. En La quinta montaña, Paulo Coelho nos regresa al siglo IX, al turbulento Medio Oriente, donde el profeta Elías enfrenta dificultades para conservar su fe viva en un mundo en constante agitación, con realezas tiránicas y dioses paganos. La historia de Elías es una lección de persistencia, una existencia en la esperanza y un recorrido que nunca olvidarás. Inspirada en circunstancias que han alterado para siempre la vida del propio Coelho, La quinta montaña es un testamento de lo cierto que es que las tragedias de la vida no deben considerarse un castigo, sino un reto para el espíritu. Apasionante en su narrativa y elegante en su prosa, La quinta montaña enseña e inspira como ninguna otra novela. Ésta es una historia atemporal para cualquier época, un relato del pasado que resuena poderosamente en nuestros días." -- Amazon.com.
ENGLISH:""More ambitious than The Alchemist. A thought-provoking tale." – TIME magazine. In The Fifth Mountain, Paulo Coelho takes us back to the ninth century, to the turbulent Middle East, where the prophet Elijah is struggling to keep his faith alive in a world of constant upheaval, tyrannical royalty, and pagan gods. Elijah’s story is a lesson in persistence, an exercise in hope, and a journey you will never forget. Inspired by a circumstance that forever altered Coelho’s own life, The Fifth Mountain is a testament to the truth that tragedy in life should not be considered a punishment, but a challenge of the spirit. Gripping in its narrative and graceful in its prose, The Fifth Mountain teaches and inspires like no other novel. This is a timeless story for the ages, a tale of the past that resonates powerfully today.
