The Forerunner
Kahlil Gibran
His second book of parables in English, again published by Knopf with the author's drawings. Short pieces on the divided self, vanity, love and the loneliness of those ahead of their time; the 'forerunner' is every human being in relation to the larger self not yet attained.
