read this book in dutch, unfortunately i did not enjoy the story as much as i thought. some quotes were very beautiful, one that resonated with me is the following quote:
teaching is only demonstrating that it is possible. learning is making it possible for yourself.

usually i enjoy paulo coelho’s book. but this book wasn’t it for me.

Here Paulo Coelho details his journey across Spain along the legendaryroad of San Tiago, which pilgrims have travelled since Middle Ages. On this contemporary quest, he encounters a Chaucerian variety of mysterious guides and devilish opponents and learns to understand the nature of truth through the simplicity of life. The Pilgrimage holds an important place in Paulo Coelho's literary canon. His first book, it not only paved the way for his phenomenal novel The Alchemist , but it also fully expresses his humanist philosophy and the depth of his unique search for meaning.
