    Gibran himself called the Broken Wings "a spiritual biography". The character Selma Karameh is said to represent a lady Sultana Tabit, with whom he had an affair in Lebanon.
    For me, it 'll always be The Prophet, or The Madman. What 's the difference anyway.

    I also have a question. He talks about "the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood".

    I do not understand. Isn't this disattachment dangerous?

    gibran is an amazing writer though some of his work may not be easily understood what he writes is very moving, i dont think that his writing is sad, his clarity and perspective are amazing, i really enjoyed the prophet
