A review by everest
The Broken Wings by جبران خليل جبران, Anthony Rizcallah Ferris, Kahlil Gibran

2.25

Loved the idea of this, but not the execution. Some parts were beautiful and then some felt narcissistic to me, like those constat wisdom bits (basically saying “I know this and if you disagree you’re wrong” when in reality people just have different experiences) and oversimplifications of life that were more judgemental than open and curious in nature. In other words, there was a lot of “let me tell you” and not all that much of genuine exploration of love, which is what I was hoping to get out of this book.
