Today I will speak about last book I have read. As you probably know, I am a long time admirer of Coelho’s books, from “The Alchemist” to “Eleven Minutes”, and “The Zahir” is his last publication, so I made it a must to read it.

Actually, I was a bit disappointed for some parts of the book, maybe I was expecting too much of it.

Generally speaking, it deals about a relationship of a writer and his wife (sometimes it seems to be autobiographic) who has suddenly disappeared of his life. He is captivated by why his wife has disappeared. “Did she find a new love? Was she kidnapped? Was she simply bored with her marriage?”

He wrote in this book about love, marriage, life, how he realized that for the first time in his life, he loves someone more than himself and he leaves all and go to search for his love, explaining how beautiful it is to hold on to your love no matter what happens.

I still recommend this book, as all Paulo Cohelo’s book it will make you reflect.
