Once again I am reading The Pilgrimage. I love Coehlo’s writing. I recommend The Alchemist if you are new to his work and The Witch of Portabello is superb too. The Pilgrimage is one of those books you can read again and again, and each time something else resonates for you.  It is the story of Coehlo’s own pilgrimage along the Road to Santiago - a journey I would like to do myself one day.  If you like true adventure stories where the hero conquers his real enemies - those within himself - then you will love this book too.
