The book highlights many of the social issues of the time in the Eastern Mediterranean, including religious corruption, the lack of rights of women, and the weighing up of wealth and happiness and is probably inspired from Gibran's own personal experiences.

Regarded as a literary and political rebel, his romantic style was at the heart of the renaissance in modern Arabic literature.
