Author Information

No te tau 1947 i whanau mai ai te kaituhi no Parihi, a Paulo Coelho, i Rio de Janeiro. He kaiwhakaari, he kaiwhakatangitangi hoki ia i mua, a, no te ekenga ona ki te toru tekau ma iwa ka arahina ia ki tana mahi hei kaituhi i tetahi haerenga tapu i te ara o Camino de Santiago. Na te iti o te hokona o tana pukapuka tuatahi, o The Alchemist, i whakatau ai tana kaiwhakaputa ki te whakarere i te pakimaero nei. Engari i nui ake te paingia o ta Coelho mahi e nga kaipanui i roto i te wa, a, nawai ra ka puta mai hei pukapuka kaha nei te hokona i te ao katoa. Nuku atu i te 230 miriona nga pukapuka a Paulo Coelho kua hokona puta noa i te ao, a, nuku atu i te 427 wiki e kitea ana ia i ta te New York Times rarangi o nga pukapuka e kaha nei te hokona. Huri i te ao, kua whakawhitihia ana pukapuka ki nga reo e 82, a, kua whakaputahia i nga whenua 170. Hei ta Kenzaburo Oe, hei ta te toa i te Nobel Prize in Literature, 'Kei te mohio a Paulo Coelho ki te kura huna o te toiwhitiiho a-tuhituhi.' Born in Rio de Janeiro in 1947, the Brazilian author Paulo Coelho was an actor and rock musician until, at thirty-nine, a pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago led him to begin his life as a writer. Slow initial sales of his second book, The Alchemist, convinced his publisher to drop the novel, but Coelho's masterpiece grew with readers over time to become a huge global bestseller. Paulo Coelho's books have now sold more than 230 million copies worldwide and have been on the New York Times bestseller list for more than 427 consecutive weeks. Around the world, they have been translated into 82 languages and published in 170 countries. As Kenzaburo Oe, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature commented, 'Paulo Coelho knows the secret of literary Alchemy.'
