Story
Banned in Russia, Tolstoy's The Kingdom of God Is Within You was deemed a threat to church and state. The culmination of a lifetime's thought, it espouses a commitment to Jesus's message of turning the other cheek. In a bold and original treatise, Tolstoy shows his readers clearly why they must reject violence of any sort—even that sanctioned by the state or the church—and urges them to look within themselves to find the answers to questions of morality.

Publisher's Summary
Nightingale Conant presents Kahlil Gibran–The Madman: His Parables and Poems.
Gibran wrote, “What I say now with one heart will be said tomorrow with many hearts.”
That was prophetic for the writer best known as The Prophet from his wildly success book of the same name.
The Prophet sold more copies in the 20th century than any other book but the Bible.
For over a century, the beautiful words of the Lebanese American poet, Kahlil Gibran, have graced everything from greeting cards and wedding invitations to inspirational wall hangings and corporate motivational literature. By one account, Gibran is the third best selling poet of all time.
Kahlil Gibran first became known to Americans in 1918 with the publication of The Madman.
We have produced each of his poems and parables as individual chapters to make it easy for you to find and share your favorites. Each chapter stands on its own, much like the millions of greeting cards and collectables that have become so popular.
