You seem to have captured the essence of the book (even though, while you were reading it, it was hard to understand -- probably because of the poetic writing style.)

Did you know that Paulo Coelho had disappointing sales when he first released The Alchemist, but then he doggedly pursued another publisher and then the book became famous?
