Biography
Born: August 24, 1947, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Background: Raised in a Catholic family and educated at a Jesuit school. As a teenager, he experienced conflict with his family over his dream to be a writer, leading to his being institutionalized for a time before ultimately pursuing his literary ambitions14.
Early Life: Briefly studied law, then left university to travel through South America, North Africa, Mexico, and Europe during the 1960s and 1970s. He worked as a songwriter with famous Brazilian musicians and had a period of activism and personal searching14.

Continued Success: Coelho has published more than 30 books, including Brida, Veronika Decides to Die, Eleven Minutes, The Valkyries, The Zahir, and The Witch of Portobello. His works have been translated into over 80 languages and sold hundreds of millions of copies worldwide17.
Major Themes
Spiritual Journeys: Focuses on characters undertaking physical and metaphorical journeys to self-discovery.
Pursuit of Dreams: Encourages following one’s dreams and listening to the heart.
