Today’s Question by Aart Hilal

Author: Paulo Coelho

In your novel “The Valkyries” the main character is Paulo Coelho. Is this book autobiographical?

So it is in “The Pilgrimage”, and in a paragraph in “Veronika decides to die”. When writing, you have to base your work in something that you experienced, although inspiration plays a very important role.
