About this listen
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)

Incredible
I could not stop listening and have even opted to get the physical copy of this book. It's reminded me a lot of how beautiful life can be if you simply let it.

some times you just need to read the right book
The Alchemist is not the type of book I would normally read, however its the type of book I needed to read.
its simple message wrapped in a easy to follow story was just what I needed.

Amazing narrator.
Incredible narrator. Seriously.
Good book as well, but I’m looking forward to hearing more of Jeremy’s work more than anything.

A beautifully told tale
This beautifully told tale feels as old as time itself and it feels as small as a grain of sand and as big as the milky way.
