Fifth Mountain

Description

**“More ambitious than *The Alchemist*. A thought-provoking tale.” – *TIME* magazine** In *The Fifth Mountain* , Paulo Coelho takes us back to the ninth century, to the turbulent Middle East, where the prophet Elijah is struggling to keep his faith alive in a world of constant upheaval, tyrannical royalty, and pagan gods. Elijah’s story is a lesson in persistence, an exercise in hope, and a journey you will never forget. Inspired by a circumstance that forever altered Coelho’s own life, *The Fifth Mountain* is a testament to the truth that tragedy in life should not be considered a punishment, but a challenge of the spirit. Gripping in its narrative and graceful in its prose, *The Fifth Mountain* teaches and inspires like no other novel. This is a timeless story for the ages, a tale of the past that resonates powerfully today.
