The fifth mountain /

Coelho, Paulo.

The fifth mountain / Paulo Coelho ; translated by Clifford E. Landers. - 1st ed. - 244 Page. 22 cm.

In The Fifth Mountain, Paulo Coelho takes us back to the ninth century, to the turbulent Middle East, where the prophet Elijah is struggling to keep his faith alive in a world of constant upheaval, tyrannical royalty, and pagan gods.

"In this retelling and extensive extrapolation of the story of the Hebrew prophet Elijah, Coelho situates his New Age prose in an appropriate biblical setting. An excellent and faithful translation willing to follow the rhythms and belabored biblical style of the original"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58. http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
