With 101 of its most popular (and most enigmatic) quotations as points of departure, \u003ci\u003eA Deeper Song: Reflections from The Prophet\u003c\/i\u003e takes readers on a journey into the spiritual depths of Gibran's poetic masterpiece.\u003cbr\u003e Along the way, \u003ci\u003eA Deeper Song\u003c\/i\u003e also reveals the underlying themes running from \u003ci\u003eThe Prophet'\u003c\/i\u003es opening narrative to its final lines. While Gibran's book is already divided into 26 \"counsels\" on such topics as Love, Work, Joy and Sorrow, Crime and Punishment, Freedom, and Death, author Mark Haskett has organized the selected quotations into nine even-more-fundamental motifs that animate Gibran's philosophy-\u003ci\u003eand\u003c\/i\u003e which inspire Mark's own insightful Reflections. Among these deeper themes are \"Rethinking Our Values,\" \"Seeking Justice,\" \"Linking with The Divine\" and \"Celebrating Life.\"\u003cbr\u003e Admittedly, Gibran's original work can stand quite nicely on its own. But if the test of great literature (including sacred literature) lies in the hidden treasures that can be gleaned from repeated readings and multiple layers of meaning, \u003ci\u003eA Deeper Song\u003c\/i\u003e reaffirms \u003ci\u003eThe Prophet'\u003c\/i\u003es place in our literary canon. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis new edition introduces an Appendix which includes a brief biography of Gibran, along with an easy-to-use index that lists Mark's Reflections and the counsels from which they were drawn.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark S.
