The subtitle of The Alchemist describes the story very well:
A Fable About Following Your Dream.
The Alchemist is a parable for the journey of self-discovery
and the transforming power of following our dreams:

travels from his village in Spain to Egypt, has many adventures and
meets many remarkable people who help him in hist quest.
- Originally, he defines his quest in worldly terms (a treasure). He
comes to understand this treasure to be wisdom and enlightenment.
