Paulo Coelho. The Alchemist. Harper, 1993.
First selection for the Hawthorne Book Club. Glad to get the opportunity to read such a world-wide popular author. This story of a boy's quest and coming of age reminded me of The Little Prince. The style seems to me to be "comforting," telling the reader what the protagonist sees, hears, thinks, and feels.
