The Alchemist

So far in this novel, I've noticed that fate has a lot to do with The Alchemist. The author talks about the universal language and personal legends. Coincidence is not a factor in the boy's happenings. Rather, things are good omens and they are "written." It is an interesting way to look at life. As the boy is traveling with the caravan he comes along the Englishman who also talks about omens. I think that many people probably share this feeling in the world.
