The book was published in the early 20th century in 1912 and it is written by an American author named, “Khalil Gibran” who was also a poet and visual artist.

He has written several stunning books, including the broken wings, the Prophet, and the Madman.

The broken wings, by the name, visualize the picture in one’s mind and a tale of broken love composed by the most beautiful and romantic voice of the east ” Khalil Gibran ” the story is much more heartbreaking than a romantic one.

Although Khalil Gibran and Salma’s love was as pure as like milk because their souls spoke with one another instead of this, unfortunately, they never expressed their love, due to the circumstances,  Salma tied the knot with the Bishop’s nephew who was such a cruel person for the sake of pleasure where he did injustice with the needy girls in the name of providing food to them. However, she was not happy with her marriage because she loved someone else who was the protagonist of the story. she never imagined that she would be separated from him.                                      After marriage, she was kept like a prisoner in her own home and punished as result she lost her beauty and she gave birth to a baby and lost her life. The pages were filled with poetic and trenchant language just like any other work of Gibran.

Thus, this book can’t be recommended as a must-read but the reader with the same taste can feel the overwhelming love from every word of Gibran
