This book is a validation of Gibran's deep faith in God and his absolute devotion to the personality of "Our Brother Jesus" as he understood it. Here is Gibran at his best ---- as a rebel against the corruption of the church, the exploitation of the poor, and the abuse of the meek at the hands of the unholy trinity: "the priest, the prince, and the rich man." The universe that Gibran erected and populated with characters forged out of his own imagination is parallel to the world created by his mentor, William Blake. It is a unique cosmos of love and light far removed from the nihilistic and dark vision imposed by Nietzsche on a godless world. In the world of both poets-prophets, Blake and Gibran, God is very much alive. He is in command. He is kind and almost human in His qualities and attributes. Gibran called Blake "The God-man." While he admired Nietzsche's "form," Gibran argued that the author of "Zarathustra" was not original in his thinking like Blake and that his philosophy was "terrible and all wrong."
