Published in 1911, The Book of Khalid is a pioneering work that blends philosophy, fiction, and social critique. The novel - the first ever written by an Arab-Amaerican author - tells the story of Khalid, a young Lebanese man, and his journey from Lebanon to the United States, exploring themes of identity, spirituality, and cultural conflict. Rihani's work remains a testament to the complexities of the immigrant experience and the enduring quest for a harmonious global culture.
