I didn't look much, I just knew that other book and a short google led me to believe it was the translation!

I'm not surprised you didn't find it, 'cause I had problems finding the right book myself :V

Whoops, I blame google.

Actually, no. I have read that though, many many years ago, and it was really great!

But this is the book I am reading now.

Do you per chance mean this Alchemist novel?
If so, awesome, I loved that book.

Movie: Rules of the Game

Game: Borderlands

(No further link, playing it again with my younger brother. So much fun!)

Book: The Book of the Alchemist

(Not done yet, really good.)

Album: The Mars Volta - Noctourniquet

(I have never been on drugs, but I am sure this is how it is)
