ميخائيل نعيمة 1889 - 1988 مفكر عربي كبير وهو واحد من ذلك الجيل الذي قاد النهضة الفكرية والثقافية وأحدث اليقظة وقاد إلى التجديد واقتسمت له المكتبة العربية مكاناً كبيراً لما كتبه وما كتب حوله. فهو شاعر وقاص ومسرحي وناقد متفهم وكاتب مقال متبصر ومتفلسف في الحياة والنفس الانسانية وقد أهدى إلينا آثاره بالعربية والانجليزية والروسية وهي كتابات تشهد له بالامتياز وتحفظ له المنزلة السامية.
ميخائيل نعيمة ولد في بسكنتا في جبل صنّين في لبنان في شهر تشرين الأول من عام 1889 وأنهى دراسته المدرسية في مدرسة الجمعية الفلسطينية فيها، تبعها بخمس سنوات جامعية في بولتافيا الأوكرانية بين عامي 1905 و 1911 حيث تسنى له الاضطلاع على مؤلفات الأدب الروسي، ثم اكمل دراسة الحقوق في الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية (منذ كانون الأول عام 1911) وحصل على الجنسية الأمريكية. انضم إلى ة القلمية التي أسسها أدباء عرب في المهجر وكان نائبا لجبران خليل جبران فيها.

Book Description
Mikhail Naimy's timeless classic, an allegory often compared to the works of his friend Khalil Gibran, presents the teachings of Mirdad, abbott of a monastery that stands where Noah's Ark came to rest after the Flood. In a series of dialogues with his disciples, Mirdad offers lessons on themes such as love, obedience, borrowing and lending, repentance, old age, and the cycle of life and death. Reissued for a new generation, this prophetic work calls on humankind to prepare for another deluge, greater than Noah's, when Heaven will be revealed on Earth. Includes a new foreword by Andrew Harvey, author of the bestselling A Journey in Ladakh and several other seminal works of spirituality!
