Brightsurf: By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept by Paulo Coelho
By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept tells of Pilar, a frustrated scholar looking for some greater meaning in the endless cycle of her days.
Although a great read for romantics everywhere and an interesting prerspective change for religious, I am saddened to admit that 'By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept' is not as strong a novel in characterization, plot, and conclusion as 'The Alchemist'- hence the three stars.

 Paulo Coelho - 'By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept'
“By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept” is another novel by Coelho that proves that love is not an obstacle to materializing one’s dreams, but a force urging the lovers to conquer their dreams and thus find God.
Just like fear of failure prevented some people from achieving greatness in “The Alchemist”, fear of rejection prevented the lovers from expressing their love in “By the river Piedra…” The expulsion of this fear is vividly symbolized with the deliberate breaking of a glass at a restaurant.
It is a characteristic sample of Coelho’s writing, and some questions are raised by the paradox of Coelho urging people not to use formulae in their lives and yet he once again uses the formula that gave him his best-selling status.

But by the River Piedra, in a small village in the French Pyrenees, they find a way to discuss many of life's big questions and re-evaluate their own special relationship.
By The River Piedra is a wonderful novel, with a poetic and transcendent narrative, that reflects all the mysteries of love and life.
The arrival of this book was for me perhaps a small miracle, in a week when several wonderful things happened, but it reinforced the reality of the other events, by pointing out to me that the miraculous in our lives is very much about a change of attitude.

 By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept by Paulo Coelho ISBN 0060977264
Often described as poetic, Coelho's prose in `By The River Piedra, I Sat Down And Wept' is artistic and almost dreamlike.
Throughout the book, Pilar actually seems to be in some sort of dream in which she willingly floats from place to place with her friend as she searches for her true self.
As such, `By The River Piedra, I Sat Down And Wept' is really a nice read on a quiet afternoon in a bathtub drinking chamomile tea and surrounded by lit candles, (ladies), but the story and the message leave a little to be desired, I think, for many other readers.
