Kahlil Gibran’s The Prophet has been quoted at weddings, funerals, and spiritual retreats for over a century, but how does it hold up for today’s reader? Jacob Shymanski and Aamer Khan explore eight chapters from the 1923 classic that leave the two of them equally inspired and frustrated. From Gibran’s philosophy on talking, to the lofty paradoxes of freedom and beauty, his poetic language may be confusing more than clarifying the universal truths.
