## Bio

Paulo Coelho de Souza was born on 24 August 1947 in Brazil and began as a lyricist before turning to fiction. In 1988 he published The Alchemist, a spare modern parable that found an audience far beyond its first printing and became an international best-seller. The reach was wide enough that by 2002 the Brazilian Academy of Letters inducted him. He remains one of the most-read authors alive, carried by a book that refuses to go out of print.
