Play :: Prophet in Exile is the remarkable true story of one of the most influential writers of the 20th century. For a time Kahlil Gibran s The Prophet was more widely read than the Bible. In Nadim Sawalha s account of Gibran s rise from obscure poet and painter in New York to an international best selling guru, we observe the man as well as the visionary. Prophet in Exile is a moving and lyrical portrayal of a political and spiritual leader torn between violent revolution and a sense of humanity.
