Episode Synopsis

I am very excited about the ITC Book Club's new selection, "The Prophet" by Kahlil Gibran. This month marks 101 years in publication. "The Prophet" is one of the most influential books of all time. It has reached 188 consecutive print runs, the longest run of all time according to Glen Kalem, film maker and Kahlil Gibran research historian. In addition to reading from the book, which is now in public domain (full copies can be downloaded for free across the internet), I talk about Gibran's life, and the overall influence of the book. I refer to "End of the Copyright Road for the Prophet," written by Kalem, which is published here: https://www.kahlilgibran.com/45-the-prophet-enters-the-public-domain.html
