He pūrākau whakamīharo te pukapuka a Paulo Coelho mō Hanatiāko, mō tētahi taitama hēpara nō Anarūhia e kōingo ana ki te hāereere ki te kimi i ngā kura huna o te ao. I roto i tana haerenga, ka kite ia i ētahi kura tino rerekē nei i tāna i pohewa ai e ea ai tana kōingo. Ka whakaako mai Te Ruānukui te pūmanawa o te whakarongo ki ō tātou ngākau, o te kite i ngā huarahi, o te ako hoki ki te whakamāori i ngā tohu ka puta mai i te wā o te ora me te akoranga nui katoa o te whai i ō tātou moemoeā.

Nuku atu i te 85 miriona ngā pukapuka kua hokona puta noa i te ao, ā, he nui ake hoki te whakawhitihia o te pukapuka nei ki reo kē i tō ētahi atu pukapuka nā tētahi kaituhi e ora tonu ana. Kua noho mai a Te Ruānukuhei pukapuka e kore nei e herea e te wā, pēnei i te reo Māori e newanewa nei tōna rere i roto i tēnei whakamāoritanga nā Hēmi Kelly.

Paulo Coelho's masterpiece tells the mystical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure. His quest will lead him to riches far different - and far more satisfying - than he ever imagined. The Alchemistteaches us about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, of recognising opportunity and learning to read the omens strewn along life's path. And, most importantly, to follow our dreams.

With over 85 million copies sold around the world and translated into more languages than any other book by a living author, The Alchemisthas established itself as a modern classic, now brilliantly translated into te reo Māori by Hēmi Kelly.
