The Pilgrimage

By: Paulo Coelho

Narrated by: Sean Runnette

The Pilgrimage paved the way to Paulo Coehlo's international bestselling novel The Alchemist. In many ways, these two volumes are companions—to truly comprehend one, you must read the other.

Step inside this captivating account of Paulo Coehlo's pilgrimage along the road to Santiago. This fascinating parable explores the need to find one's own path. In the end, we discover that the extraordinary is always found in the ordinary and simple ways of everyday people. Part adventure story, part guide to self-discovery, this compelling tale delivers the perfect combination of enchantment and insight.

Hard-hitting and amazing

What made the experience of listening to The Pilgrimage the most enjoyable?

The narrator's voice was spot on for such a book. It really captured the confusion, desperation and "lost" of that Paulo was experiencing throughout the events, and it instantly starts with such emotion which flows through the entire book. Every time you stop to listen to it, bang, you're right back into the world where you know nothing and are questioning everything, purely because of the superb narration.

What other book might you compare The Pilgrimage to and why?

It's like the Alchemist, but head on full on hard hitting lessons - lessons that make you cringe at times, but worth it.

Which scene was your favorite?

All of it.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It definitely made me uneasy at times... and laugh a few times.

I waited 4 months read it again and it was amazing 👏 I was not ready the first time

intriguing

I'm not sure what to think of this story is it true or is it made up it's written in the premise like it's true but it's a little odd at times.

thought provoking

I enjoyed this. I decided to give it a try after reading/listening to the Alchemist. The lessons and challenges that the main character had to overcome were thought provoking. The story itself is captivating and I'm glad I decided to get this book.
