About this audiobook

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho continues to change the lives of its readers forever. With more than two million copies sold around the world, The Alchemist has established itself as a modern classic, universally admired.

Paulo Coelho's masterpiece tells the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found.

The story of the treasures Santiago finds along the way teaches us, as only a few stories can, about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, above all, following our dreams.

    Narrators voice made me to listen and I buried my self all day until the boy made his dream come true. Now I believe personal legend is what matters in our life , how boy got to meet the alchemist and learned the true purpose of life. Made me to think of mine. I definitely enjoyed listening to "The Alchemist".

    Wow. To say how inspired I am by this novel would never do the feeling in my heart justice. Amazing novel, themes that tie to many areas of life. Too many good quotes so I’ll share just one “when you give in to your fears, you can no longer hear from your heart.” I’ll be listening to this book many more times.
