Khalil Gibran, a Lebanese American artist and poet, is renowned for his philosophical essays in English prose, particularly in his acclaimed work from 1923. His writing, which blends spirituality and inspiration, gained significant popularity during the 1960s counterculture, despite initial mixed reviews. Gibran's unique background, having immigrated to the United States as a child, influenced his artistic and literary voice. He is celebrated as the third best-selling poet in history, following Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu, marking his enduring impact on literature.
