Paulo Coelho’s ‘Brida’ offers narrative
philosophy to a young generation
By Lisette Riva S. Pajimola
|
|
“Nothing in the world is ever completely wrong, my dear” said
her [Brida’s] father, looking at the clock. ‘Even a stopped
clock is right twice a day.’
Brida, a newly released novel of Paulo Coelho,
has been set to transform the way we view love, passion and life.
It’s a tale of mysteries that requires the readers’ intensive
discretion, especially on matters of rituals and traditions.

Enthusiasm
|
|
Somebody once wrote: “Even if you do something ridiculous,
