Opinion on the novel The Zahir
The Zahir Life, happiness, lamb, loss, and obsession specify the latest novel that I have read The Zahir written by the Brazilian writer Paulo Coelho. The title itself revealed an interesting feeling and curiosity to the readers. The edge Zahir comes from the Islamic tradition which means visible and incapable of going unnoticed. This transnational bestseller novel is a piece of art skillful of surprises and mysteries.The tory is about the teller, a bestselling novelist who lived by enjoying all the pleasures and privileges money, fame, power, and celebrity brings. For unknown reasons, he was abandoned by his own wife named Esther, a war-correspondent. The simple language used by the writer is so powerful and persuasive that would allow readers to feel the tawdriness of the scenes. Moreover, the writer used the first- person point of view to provoke effectively emotional situations. Paulo Coelho also ade use of imagery.As an adventurous person, I hold dear most the narrato rs pilgrimage. I felt like I was also traveling by narration the narrators search for his own self and wife from capital of France to Kazakhstan. Along the Journey with special signifi sessce, the novel showed virtues like generosity to the poor, spirituality, patience, love, attentiveness and knowing oneself to have genuine happiness. Finally in the later part, the narrator was able to meet Esther and whether to stay with him or not lies in her ecisions.I can say that the ending is worth reading and waiting because of the enjoying tension. After reading the whole story, I can deduce that the author is someone who is full of experiences and wisdom and maybe hes also in search for something very significant. The Zahir represents a human experience after reading it, readers would learn again how to love and forgive in an unselfish way, and most especially, how to live life to the fullest.
