Spirits Rebellious

A book so powerful it was burned in the marketplace of Beirut at the time of its publication, Kahlil Gibran's Spirits Rebellious is a clarion call for freedom in his homeland of Lebanon; for individuals and society. His bitter denunciation of religious and political injustice flows through the three parables, that of "Madame Rose Hanie," "The Cry of the Graves," and "Kahlil the Heretic."
