Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931) was a Lebanese poet, philosopher, artist, and writer. The millions of people familiar with his work consider him the genius of his age. His most famous work is THE PROPHET.


Spirits Rebellious is a book so powerful it was burned in the marketplace of Beirut at the time of its publication, because it upset the religious priests. Kahlil Gibran's Spirits Rebellious is a clarion call for freedom in his homeland of Lebanon—for individuals and society.


Gibran's bitter denunciation of religious and political injustice flows through his lyric pen in three parables, that of "Madame Rose Hanie," "The Cry of the Graves," and "Kahlil the Heretic." His vision of liberty is no less powerful today.
