The Alchemist certainly is a great book, anyone who hasn't read it is certainly missing out, I would place it in the category called 'New Age' right next to a book called 'The Celestine Prophecy' which I thought was also excellent.
On another note, if this thread is for suggesting reads, my suggestion is a much bigger book, but one that is such an excellent read, a true story about an Australian heroin addict that breaks out of jail and escapes to India on a flase passport, then ascends through the tiers of organised crime. Its called Shantaram.
