What does learning mean: accumulating knowledge or transforming your life?
A quote from the witch of portobello ❤
It's a peculiar book for self realization and it speaks to ur soul and rejuvenate ur life if u really read this book from heart. In this book Paulo has showed the protagonist (Athena) life in people's (her acquaintance ,friends, her mother) point of view
The first half of the book is such a cliffhanger but the second half completely deals with spirituality visions etc .many ppl review this as Paulo's bad work but book is actually a self realization of Athena who travels in all the path denied by society to fill the blank spaces of her life .They tell this because some things in this book like dance, hagia Sofia, the ritual performed by her with Ella and Andrea is considered as absurd ideas but above all one should understand she is disguised as the omnipotent mother of earth gaia with powers of prediction and vision . So I strongly recommend this book for someone who atleast have a glimpse of spirituality ,for those people this book is absolutely a treat but for some minds this book is little absurd but the ideas of the book can grasped by anyone who read this because Paulo's plot is always simple but the ideas are for eternity, and this is not about going against religion and it's laws but something will open ur eyes to the real world of Devine spirituality and laws of nature rather than the absurd and meaningless ideas laid by People centuries ago .
Athena - not a witch, not a charlatan or a shenanigan but a women who go in search of herself 💞
