Just as a notice, H.P.Lovecraft has also written a novel called The Alchemist.

For everyone that read this book: How old were you when you actually understood it?
I'm 14 and I still don't get what's going on in the book..

I don't really like his other books...

The alchemist is a very good book!
his best!

the first time I finished the book in 1 day, without a stop...
happens with only a few books.
