Gibran fu un poeta e filosofo libanese. Di religione cristiano-maronita, di adozione statunitense, fu punto di riferimento per molti letterati arabi emigrati negli Stati Uniti.

Con il "Giardino", continuano le lezioni di vita del Profeta. In questo, come in altri scritti di Gibran, si parla di amore spirituale.
