The lost

The "Lost" is nothing but another name for "The Mad". In it, Jibran completes his critique of social traditions and his satire of human duality and contradictions that destroy their souls. Jibran summarizes his existential view through a collection of stories-lessons, in a prose style dictated by his authentic romanticism, and a Sufi tendency stemming from his belief in the unity of existence. "The Lost" was published in 1932, one year after Jibran's death.
