Perfect Quality.
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Cloth bound cover with printed foil design on the front cover. The lettering color ; as well as the picture illustrations, are entirely printed in blue ink. There is a removable price sticker on the back of the book, which it is hard to remove without it leaving glue residue behind, therefore I myself left it as it was. The sprayed edges are also of blue metallic color. Very nice quality book I recommend buying it. My copy of the book had only a very tiny indentation on the edge of the top front cover but hardly anything to make a fuss about.

Beautiful physical book / perception altering offerings
Format: Hardcover
I encountered this book when I was 9 years old and it completely changed the way I lived my life and viewed others. No more woe is me, nor life isnʻt fair. Instead I realized my actions and perceptions are in my control. Truly mind altering.
Annually I have a selection of books and other writings, including The Prophet, that I read again. The Prophet is always fresh and I come away with new eyes and attitude.
The hardcover book is beautiful with the book pages kissed with a serene blue that is reflected on the cover and the text within. Just looking at the book makes me feel calm and ready for the words of love, acceptance, and the freedom to be.
I purchased this book for myself to replace the tattered paperback I was given as a child. After reading and rereading over the past couple of days I am going to purchase a few more books to gift to people I love.
