Question

As Santiago is attempting to turn himself into the wild, who does he hold conversations with?

A) Animals of the desert
B) Spirits of the wind
C) Rocks and stones
D) His own reflections

Answer 1

Santiago, the protagonist in 'The Alchemist,' converses with the spirits of the wind as he seeks to turn himself into the wind.

Step-by-step explanation:

As Santiago attempts to turn himself into the wind, he holds conversations with the spirits of the wind. The context provided by the information about reflections and the escaped prisoner relates to Plato's allegory of the cave, which discusses the process of enlightenment and the discovery of truth. In contrast, the mention of Santiago and spirits suggests the conversation is from Paulo Coelho's novel The Alchemist, where the protagonist, Santiago, speaks to the elements including the wind, as part of his personal legend to understand the Soul of the World.
