  • Sir do your words are those of an alchemists – to change the leaden realities of daily life to gold.I am yet to read The Witch of Portebllow. As time goes by you have changed and also your views as evidenced by your books . Any planns for a signing session in India?

  • I would like to share a poem I wrote of my awakening in your beautiful land. Some of my experiences can quite possibly never be compacted into words. I always say: my body is American, but my heart and soul is of Brasil! Peace. Jessica :O)

    Obrigada Brasil

    Senhora Brasil,

    SO small
    in your presence
    I climb through your
    monkey love vines
    of swinging,
    jungle mane
    woven in Christ
    who adorns you
    with crown of
    outstretched arms

    Rio,
    he watches
    over your night

    I bathe in your
    gentle rivers of cleanse,
    where waterfalls weep
    for empty pockets,
    homeless men,
    jobless streets,
    dusted hope

    I hear you whisper
    in elder streets
    Santa Theresa,
    Paratay,
    Lapa,
    you shelter
    the poor, but
    rich in spirit!

    A favella child’s
    hand of need
    suckles your
    giving breast
    of leite life

    As your spiritual belly
    of blue agua grace
    stretches like blown glass
    onto Ipanema’s
    golden praia sheets
    of sensual mood

    I adore your
    ocean glance,
    samba step,
    conga beat,
    essence of life

    Obrigada Senhora

    Um beiju!

  • You are such a humble and sweet, beautiful person. I love you!

    No wonder your books are so popular, because they contain a part of your soul and your soul really is a treasure.

  • Paulo I so wish I had discovered your wonderful books 6 months ago. I live 60 miles from Glasgow and cant believe you were there so recently and I missed you.
    A good friend gave me The Alchemist to read last month and since then, I have read all of your books and reading them has healed my heart. Your words of wisdom could have been written for me, I have chosen a new path now and found love in my life after a long time.
    Your books gave me the courage to do that and I am forever grateful.
    By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept is the most beautiful love story I have ever read and a book I shall always treasure.
    If you ever come to Scotland again, I should love to be there.
    Thank you so much.
