With 'The Zahir' Paulo Coelho demonstrates his powerful and captivating storytelling. It begins with a glimpse or a passing thought - it ends in obsession.
One day a reowned author discovers that his wife, a war correspondent, has disappeared without a trace. Though time brings more success and new love, he remains mystified - and increasingly fascinated - by her absence. Was she kidnapped, blackmailed, or simply bored with their marriage? The unrest she causes is as strong as the attraction she exerts.
His search for her - and for the truth of his own life - takes him from South America to Spain, France, Croatia and, eventually, the bleaky beautiful landscape of Central Asia. More than that, it leads him into a new understanding of love, the power of destiny and what it really means to follow your heart.
With 'The Zahir' Paulo Coelho demonstrates not just his powerful and captivating storytelling, but also his extraordinary insight into what it is to be a human being in a world full of possibility.
