This book was below my expectations.
I imagined I would read an adventure and I was surprised by these wise words!

A copt is addressing the whole Jerusalem (Al Qods) before its occupation by the crusaders and telling them about the meanings of some feelings and actions.

Paulo here is so affected by "The prophet" written by Gibran Khalil Gibran, I didn't like the latter so therefore, I didn't like this as well.
I won't deny it has some deep meanings and beautiful words but overall I was bored and really afraid to go back to my reading slump because of it.

I'm sorry, Paulo :(
