I was attracted because when I first started learning Spanish this book was given to me to translate into English to help me learn to read the language. It reminded me of the lyricism of Neruda's poetry and Khalil Gilbran's long prose. The meaning that I got from the text was an unexpected bonus and inspired me to read his other books.<BR/>I am definitely striving to reach my personal legend.T. S.
