Listened as the Jeremy Irons-read audiobook. The Alchemist has big "my potions are too strong for you, traveler" energy. Read this book as a kid and didn't understand anything that was going on. Glad to re-(listen) as an adult and finally make sense of it. Honestly? Was more inspiring than I would have expected.
