Summary
Critic reviews
"The story has the comic charm, dramatic tension and psychological intensity of a fairy tale, but it's full of specific wisdom as well, about becoming self-empowered, overcoming depression, and believing in dreams." (Publishers Weekly)
"It is short, but certainly packs a wallop. What makes the story even better is Jeremy Irons's unforgettable narration.... Irons's voice is crystal clear, and every word is given its own starring role in the text. He creates wondrous characters, male and female, that stay with us." (AudioFile)

Magical
Listening to Jeremy Irons speak of omens and personal legends transports you to a world of calm and dreams. I’ve read the Alchemist in Spanish and listened to it in English twice now. I now owe the book in English too. The story of Santiago is one of the best fables for any person on Earth regardless their age.

Absolutely fantastic!
Great read! If you ever feel lost, I recommend reading this book. If you are not religious like myself, just ignore the references or interpret them differently. I have listened to this story over 20 times and still love it and find inspiration in it.
