Beskrivelse
Beyond the Rivers, Across the Seas can stand on the category of books like Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist and Nicolas Sparks' The Notebook, but it offers more, in so far as for the first book by the Brazilian writer the reader follows the trip of a young shepherd in quest of a treasure, in the desert region comprised between Andalusia, Spain, Tangier, Algeria, and the Pyramids of Egypt. The Spanish boy goes stage after stage, and learns tremendous truths about his own self, to finally discover that the treasure is at the place he had started his trip. The reader discovers that our dreams come true because we believe in them and work on their realization. In The Notebook by the American writer, the reader is put in front of one of the greatest proof of love. The hero and the heroine, though from different backgrounds, stand against all odds, to defend their love. Their children and grandchildren cannot and could never understand the passionate love deeply buried in their hearts after social barriers were overwhelmed. Beyond the Rivers, Across the Seas, as for it, defies the social conventions, it opens the doors to love, journeys across the most beautiful landscapes of rivers, streams, lakes and seas. It takes the reader to the most beautiful places on earth, where the hero, an African Prince and the heroine, a French Countess, try to escape a dishonored fiance.
