Resumen del Editor
Kahlil Gibran (January 6, 1883-April 10, 1931) was a Lebanese-American artist, poet, and writer whose inspiring works are still widely read and enjoyed throughout the world.
The Forerunner, published in 1920, was written three years before Kahlil Gibran's best-known work, The Prophet, and is a book composed of his developing spiritual ideas of both poetry and prose.
Gibran's popularity grew markedly during the 1960s, with the American counterculture and then with the flowering of the New Age movement. His work has remained popular with these and with the wider population to this day.
Since The Prophet was first published in 1923, it has never been out of print, has been translated into more than 40 languages, and is one of the best-selling books of the 20th century in the United States.
The Forerunner was released into the public domain in April of 2017.

Historia
In Paradise Regained, Satan again is on the prowl, having successfully tempted Adam and Eve, and forced their departure from the Garden of Eden. Here he sets out to tempt again, this time Jesus himself, as he comes to the end of his 40 days in the desert. The magisterial poetry of Milton enriches the encounter and, while not matching the greatness achieved in Paradise Lost, provides drama and depth.

Historia
Sir Francis Bacon's The New Atlantis is a utopian novel about a mythical land called Bensalem, where the inhabitants live happily with the sciences. In The New Atlantis, Bacon focuses on the duty of the state toward science, and his projections for state-sponsored research anticipate many advances in medicine and surgery, meteorology, and machinery. Although The New Atlantis is only a part of his plan for an ideal commonwealth, this work does represent Bacon's ideological beliefs.

Historia
Paradise Lost, along with its companion piece, Paradise Regained, remain the most successful attempts at Greco-Roman style epic poetry in the English language. Remarkably enough, they were written near the end of John Milton's amazing life, a bold testimonial to his mental powers in old age. And, since he had gone completely blind in 1652, 15 years prior to Paradise Lost, he dictated it and all his other works to his daughter.

The Arthurian legend of Camelot has been told many times, but never better than by Alfred Tennyson. Employing some of the most stirring and beautiful blank verse ever written, Tennyson crafted his version of the Knights of the Round Table over the course of nearly fifty years, completing it in 1885. Despite the length of time, Tennyson managed to maintain a high level of style and continuity throughout.

Twelve billionaires rule the United States, while those called freemen are forced to serve the rich. But that was 60 years ago, before the Scarlet Plague. In this post-apocalyptic novella, a ragged and tattered old man tells his progeny of what life was like before The Scarlet Plague appeared - and wiped out civilization as they knew it.

Full of mischief, valor, ribaldry, and romance, The Arabian Nights has enthralled readers for centuries. These are the tales that saved the life of Scheherazade, whose husband, the king, executed each of his wives after a single night of marriage. Beginning an enchanting story each evening, Scheherazade always withheld the ending: A thousand and one nights later, her life was spared forever.

Francis and Jesus is the story of how the poor and humble St. Francis of Assisi gave away all to gain all, sharing in God's kingdom on Earth. Francis' life exemplifies what it means to be a genuine disciple of Jesus, walking in Christ's footsteps to show how ultimate truth is lived in small, unique ways. Franciscan Father Murray Bodo takes us on the journey with Francis, as we see his pain, his suffering, his dying to self. On that difficult road we are reminded that death to self creates new life....

Not the Prophet, the Forerunner
Would you consider the audio edition of The Forerunner to be better than the print version?
You can see a print version online, but the audiobook is a great way to listen to the story.
What other book might you compare The Forerunner to and why?
Anyone who is a fan of Khalil Gibhran’s The Prophet will enjoy The Forerunner. Much like the Prophet, the Forerunner is a collection of poems, parables, and short stories told in colorful language.
Any additional comments?
This audiobook is unique because the narration begins with background music by Fluidscape which is relaxing and calming. Much like guided meditation, the narrator with a soothing voice reads the passages. Each chapter begins with a slight gong and the title of the next story or poem begins. I appreciated the gong and that the narrator definitively states the beginning of the next passage which is helpful when there are so many different stories.

While I have enjoyed reading Kahill Gibran on my own,I found this version to be irritating.I felt like I was in a yoga class with the soft voice and gong.Kitty Hendrix is a good narrator but this text really needed a mans voice.I was provided this book by the author, narrator or publisher.

Spritual, but rather humanistic at the same time
Gibran's work touches upon the ancient mysteries of love and wisdom of the ages long ago...Its a humanistic vision of ancient biblical and spiritual times in and around Lebanon and the Jordan Valley. The music gives it sort of New-age twist, but the teachings (if that is what one wants to call it) seem to be a bit off to me; a bit too mystical. It strikes me more as poetry than that of religious thought.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Audioboom in return for my unbiased review.

Is there anything you would change about this book?
More interesting stories from Kahlil to choose from.
Would you be willing to try another book from Kahlil Gibran? Why or why not?
Yes, I love his writings.
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
It was read rather that felt.
Could you see The Forerunner being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
No.
