The Theme of Love in Paulo Coelho’s Select Novels

Abstract

Coelho’s popular `The Alchemist` is not a novel on the roles of men and women and it is not making any statement about mundane love except talking about a mystical Universal love. But it does say about love being one of the most important and valuable treasures that can be found.  The other novels are equally mystical leaning much on Erosand Agape. Rather they try to show the inner lanes of agape. This is a brief attempt to show the author’s experience of agape is not only universal but also personal.
