"Cadenced and vibrant with feeling, the words of Kahlil Gibran bring to one's ears the majestic rhythm of Ecclesiastes... If there is a man or woman who can read this book without a quiet acceptance of a great man's philosophy and a singing in the heart as of music born within, that man or woman is indeed dead to life and truth." -- Chicago Post

    Impressed with how fast my cookbooks arrived and how securely packaged they were. They were perfectly as described and every bit of detail was most helpful. The price was too good to pass up so I snagged it. I had a question and it was answered quickly and very politely. A highly recommended seller for sure and I can't wait to find more goodies soon. Thank you for the top-tier service!
