Summary
A young Andalusian shepherd named Santiago dreams of treasure at the Egyptian pyramids and sets out to find it. Along the way he meets a king, a thief, an Englishman searching for the philosopher's stone, and an alchemist who teaches him the language of the world. The book's premise is simple: pursuing your Personal Legend — your deepest calling — is the one thing that gives life meaning, and the universe rearranges itself to help.
