Musica Cubiculum de Briand

I still remember the moment that me taking such exotic book out of local library’s bookshelf. The bookcase, which was about twice my height, stood before me in a stately form, and the book in my hand made me feel strange. And at the moment I read the title of the book, I instinctively became obsessed with the idea that I had to read it. The exotic book held in that eight year old boy’s hands was ‘the Alchemist’ of Paulo Coelho, which eventually became the most influential book in my life. In fact, when I look back now, it's hard to say that ‘The Alchemist’ was a very good option for eight-years-old boy’s book to read. The contents of the book are not sound and the message itself is a little complicated to understand. But at that time, I liked this book very much. At the age of eight, I liked the idea that Santiago was taking a trip and meeting new people throughout the whole book. Maybe I thought of this book as an adventure novel. And so the book went back into the bookcase.
