The Alchemist is the most famous work of author Paulo Coelho, a symbolic story that urges its readers to follow their dreams. The novel tells the tale of Santiago, a boy who has a repeating dream that leads him on a quest of discovery. This story speaks of the "Soul of the World" and that the Earth itself wants us to be happy. This story tells how each of us have a single mission or goal in life, a Personal Legend, though most of us don't realize it. But most importantly it speaks of how doing good deeds for others is eventually rewarded and though we don't know what out treasure will be, or where and how we will receive it, if we follow our heart, we will find it. It is a strong, uplifting, heartfelt story that as of 2004, had been translated into over 40 languages and sold over 50 million copies in more than 150 countries.
