Gibran was a Lebanese-American writer, poet, and artist whose work played an important role in the development of modern Arabic literature, particularly through his lyrical prose and spiritual themes. He later became internationally famous for The Prophet, but The Broken Wings remains especially significant as one of his important Arabic works and is often regarded as a powerful expression of his ideas about love, freedom, social inequality, and human suffering. The novel is also notable for its criticism of social and religious authority and its portrayal of the limited choices available to women in the society of its time. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet in Beirut at the beginning of the twentieth century, the story follows a young narrator who meets Faris Karama and falls deeply in love with his daughter, Selma.
