Paulo Coelho in DUBAI!

Paulo Coelho the renowned Brazilian Novelist is visiting Dubai Tomorrow.... he will be signing books at Virgin Megastore in Mercato between 6-8 PM Wednesday the 16th... most of you might know him from the Alchemist. And here is a list of his novels and books:

1987: The Pilgrimage: A Contemporary Quest for Ancient Wisdom

1988: The Alchemist: A Fable About Following Your Dream

1990: Brida

1991: The Gift

1992: The Valkyries

1994: By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept
Maktub (Biblioteca Paulo Coelho)

1996: The Fifth Mountain

1997: Warrior of the Light : A Manual
Love Letters from a Prophet

1998: Veronika Decides to Die

1999: Paulo Coelho: Confessions of a Pilgrim by Juan Arias

2000: The Devil and Miss Prym

2003: Eleven Minutes : A Novel

2005: The Zahir : A Novel of Obsession

I can't write anything about him, for a writer of his status is hard to describe.. so I will quote his website:

Paulo Coelho, seen by some as an alchemist of words and, by others, as a mass culture phenomenon, is the most influential author of the present century. Readers from over 150 countries, irrespective of their creed and culture, have turned him into a reference author of our time.

His books, translated into 56 languages, have not only topped the bestseller lists, but have gone on to become the subject of social and cultural debate. The ideas, philosophy and subject matter covered in his books touch the aspirations of millions of readers searching for their own path and for new ways of understanding the world.


Too Bad for me I won't be able to attend because I'm leaving to Kuwait tomorrow... :(

It'll be lovely if I got a signed copy of the Alchemist..
