Description

In this biography, Robin Waterfield traces the influences that have shaped Gibran, from the decadence of the fin-de-siècle Boston to the vigour of Greenwich Village in its heyday before World War I. He explores Gibran's development from wounded Romantic and angry young man to his final metamorphosis as the prophet of New York.
