Khalil Gibran (1883-1931) was Lebanese by birth but spent a major part of his life in America in the early part of the twentieth century. He wrote many collections of stories with a wise or whimsical tone, but none more popular than The prophet, his first collection, or The wanderer, his final anthology. They are read here with great sympathy and understanding by Robert Glenister.
