Young Coelho wanted to become a writer. Due to the desire of his parents, Coelho enrolled in law school, abandoning his dream of becoming a writer. A year later, he dropped out of college and began to live a hippie life. He travels to Europe, Africa, South America and Mexico starting to use drugs (1960). In 1986, he travels on the road to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. This journey represents a turning point in his life. On the way, Coelho has a spiritual revelation, realizing that he was unhappy because he did not follow his dream of becoming a writer. This revelation is described in his autobiographical book, The Pilgrimage.

In 1982, Coelho published his first book, Hell Archives. This is not the success hoped for by Coelho. Following his pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela, he published the novel The Pilgrimage in 1986. In 1988, he writes the novel "The Alchemist." This novel is very well received by the public and has a huge success. Paulo Coelho becomes known all over the world, his book being translated into many languages.

Later, Coelho writes a lot of books of which we mention: Veronika Decides to Die, The Devil and Miss Prym, Eleven Minutes, Brida, The Valkyries, Aleph, Manuscript Found in Accra. In total, Coelho has published 30 books.
