Answer: By the River Piedra I sat Down and Wept (Na margem do rio Piedra eu sentei e chorei) is one of Paulo Coelho's most prominent titles. This is the first part in Coelho's trilogy "On the Seventh Day". The other two parts are Veronika Decides to Die and The Devil and Miss Prym. This trilogy is a week in the life of someone ordinary to whom something extraordinary happens. The novel takes its title from the incipit of the famous Psalm 137: By the Rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion (KJV). It is essentially a story about love. It also includes elements of paganism; in particular it focuses on the female aspect of divinity.

Question: Any good books by Paulo Coelho aside from the Alchemist and by the River Piedra I sat down and Wept?

Answer: The Valkyries was ok, not great, but not bad. I did like the Alchemist. Warrior of Light is pretty bad, unless you are into self-affirmation self-help books.

Question: A question from the book By The River Piedra I Sat Down And Wept? I finished reading the book but i didnt understand what really happened to Pilar's childhood friend. Anyone knows ? Thanks in advance =]

Answer: His childhood friend came back to her. He says the Goddess has given him another chance in life, and "She is giving me that with you." What Pilar had wanted (see pp.162-168) became a reality. The two of them will go and do the mission of his childhood friend, preaching about the Goddess, healing people and stuff. "I am going to sit here with you by the river. If you go home to sleep, I will sleep in front of your house. And if you go away, I will follow you--until you tell me to go away. Then I'll leave. But I have to love you for the rest of my life." Damn. He is sooo sweet. :)
