Love is humankind's supreme gift, our spiritual center and our guiding light. This inspiring essay by Paulo Coelho, the internationally bestselling author of The Alchemist, teaches us how to embrace it.The Supreme Gift is an invitation for reflection, a clear and concise response to life's biggest questions. Inspired by a 19th century sermon by Henry Drummond offering a deeper understanding of love, here Coelho explains love as the culmination of nine elements, which we can incorporate into our everyday lives for an instant connection to life's most important gift: <ol><li>patience,</li><li>kindness,</li><li>generosity,</li><li>humility,</li><li>gentleness,</li><li>dedication,</li><li>tolerance,</li><li>sincerity, and</li><li>innocence.</li></ol> In The Supreme Gift, Paulo Coelho, author of The Alchemist, a fable of following your dream and one of Oprah’s “Best Self-Help Books of a Generation,” offers a real and powerful message that will help us incorporate love into our daily life and experience all its transformational power.Freely adapted from the text by Henry Drummond

Love is humankind's supreme gift. Paulo Coelho, the internationally bestselling author of The Alchemist, teaches us how to embrace it.“I thought that I had already thought about everything you could think about Love when Henry Drummond’s sermon fell into my hands. My life changed a lot from the moment I read the words in this book and tried to put his teaching into practice.”—Paulo CoelhoWhat is love? In the 19th century, the young missionary Henry Drummond defined love as the culmination of nine elements:<ol><li>patience,</li><li>kindness,</li><li>generosity,</li><li>humility,</li><li>gentleness,</li><li>dedication,</li><li>tolerance,</li><li>sincerity, and</li><li>innocence.</li></ol>He laid this out in his sermon, “The Greatest Thing in the World,” which has become a classic and is, without doubt, one of the most beautiful texts ever written on love. Reflecting on this sermon and its subject, St. Paul’s Letter to the Corinthians, the admired spiritual teacher Paulo Coelho, author of The Alchemist, a fable of following your dream and one of Oprah’s “Best Self-Help Books of a Generation,” brings us on his own journey of deepening his practice of Love.Contrary to what we are used to hearing, the greatest treasure in the spiritual life is not faith, but love. No matter what your religious beliefs are, this feeling is, without doubt, the most rewarding way to live. In The Supreme Gift, Paulo Coelho adapts Henry Drummond’s text, offering a real and powerful message that will help us incorporate love into our daily life and experience all its transformational power in our lives.Freely adapted from the text by Henry Drummond

Just One Look At You

"A much-needed dose of comfort and positivity." —Shanna Tan, translator of Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop Tabby cat Fuuta has passed into the afterlife and will do anything to see his human again . . . if only he can not disrupt the balance of the universe. After a long life with a loving human family, tabby cat Fuuta has passed into the afterlife, but he is not as far from his owner, Michiru, as it seems. Slight openings bridge the divide between the lands of the living and the dead, and they can be traversed. Eager to see Michiru again, Fuuta interviews for a position at Café Pont, a café that exists in the liminal space between the two worlds, known for its unique message delivery service: Customers leave requests with the name of the person they wish to meet, and a messenger cat is assigned to arrange the "meeting." If Fuuta doesn’t maintain plausible deniability, he could cause panic amongst the living, or worse: He could upset the balance of the universe itself. It is a weighty task for an old tabby cat, but Fuuta is up for the challenge. After all, the job offers a special reward: the right to see Michiru. And he’ll do anything to reunite with his family.

But after their mother's death, Jane's gifts became entangled with addiction, pulling the sisters into a cycle of love, guilt and heartbreak that neither could escape.

But when her first love, a boy she lost under devastating circumstances, returns, Lily is forced to confront the past she thought she had buried. As old wounds reopen, and her fragile bond with Jane grows ever more tenuous, Lily must navigate the tension between the life she's built and the life she once imagined for herself.

Laws of Love and Logic

The big-hearted, bestselling South Korean memoir co-written by two best friends flouting gender norms and societal expectations with their decision to grow old together under one roof. When most of their peers were moving in with romantic partners and having children, Kim Hana and Hwang Sunwoo chose independence—savoring solitude, quiet mornings, and the unmitigated freedom of living alone. But in their forties, something shifted, and they were met with a new, unexpected loneliness. Refusing to settle for the outdated choice between marriage or isolation, Hana and Sunwoo made a radical decision: to buy a home and live together—not as lovers, not as roommates, but as chosen family.Now a bustling household of two women and four cats, Hana and Sunwoo still value solitude, but can do so while sharing a life and its meaning with someone else. Together they navigate the challenges and comforts of cohabiting in midlife, the growing pains of interdependence and the unexpected rewards of compromise when you’ve grown set in your ways. From sick days to career wins to aging parents and beach-side retirement plans, they are redefining domestic bliss on their own terms, where love, partnership, and home are defined not by tradition, but by choice.With warmth, wit, and sharp social insight, Hana and Sunwoo share their blueprint for building a life outside the scripts of marriage and society’s expectations for women. Two Women Living Together is a quiet revolution—a celebration of female friendship, community, and the many forms that love and family can take.

The Bestselling Korean Memoir

Two Women Living Together

From the author of&nbsp;Hollow Kingdom,&nbsp;a fantastically funny story featuring a cast of colorful characters in a dying Italian village and a giant truffle that changes their fate forever in this “deliciously absurd tale....I savored every page of this book.” (Shelby Van Pelt, author of&nbsp;Remarkably Bright Creatures) A 2025&nbsp;Washington Post Notable Work of Fiction After nearly losing the election to a geriatric donkey, newly installed Mayor Delizia Miccuci can’t help but feel like the sun has finally set on the rural Italian village of Lazzarini Boscarino. Tourists only stop by to ask for directions, Nonna Amara’s cherished&nbsp;ristorante&nbsp;is long shuttered, and the town hall is disgustingly overrun with&nbsp;glis glis&nbsp;poo—even Postman Duccio has been disgraced. All that’s left is Bar Celebrità, a rustic establishment where weary locals gather to quibble over decades-long disputes, submit their poor stomachs to bartender Giuseppina’s volcanic espresso, and wonder what will become of the place where together they’ve spent their entire lives. &nbsp; Little do the villagers know that local truffle hunter Giovanni Scarpazza has just happened upon something that could change everything. A truffle—un&nbsp;tartufo, that is—sits beneath the soil with the power to either be the greatest gift or the foulest curse the village has ever seen. Written with the same enchanting style and raucous humor that defines&nbsp;Hollow Kingdom&nbsp;and&nbsp;Feral Creatures, Tartufo is a reflection on the interconnectedness of life in all its manifestations—and how holding on to harmony in the face of hardship can grow something beautiful and rare beneath the surface.
