Shantaram
A novel of high adventure, great storytelling and moral purpose, based on an extraordinary true story of eight years in the Bombay underworld<BR><BR>'A literary masterpiece... at once erudite and intimate, reflective and funny... it has the grit and pace of a thriller' Daily Telegraph<BR>'A publishing phenomenon' Sunday Times<BR>'A gigantic, jaw-dropping, grittily authentic saga' Daily Mail<BR><BR>'In the early 80s, Gregory David Roberts, an armed robber and heroin addict, escaped from an Australian prison to India, where he lived in a Bombay slum. There, he established a free health clinic and also joined the mafia, working as a money launderer, forger and street soldier. He found time to learn Hindi and Marathi, fall in love, and spend time being worked over in an Indian jail. Then, in case anyone thought he was slacking, he acted in Bollywood and fought with the Mujahedeen in Afghanistan... Amazingly, Roberts wrote Shantaram three times after prison guards trashed the first two versions. It's a profound tribute to his willpower... At once a high-kicking, eye-gouging adventure, a love saga and a savage yet tenderly lyrical fugitive vision.' Time Out

The Mountain Shadow
The first glimpse of the sea on Marine Drive filled my heart, if not my head. I turned away from the red shadow. I stopped thinking of that pyramid of killers, and Sanjay's improvidence. I stopped thinking about my own part in the madness. And I rode, with my friends, into the end of everything.<BR><BR>Shantaram introduced millions of readers to a cast of unforgettable characters through Lin, an Australian fugitive, working as a passport forger for a branch of the Bombay mafia. In The Mountain Shadow, the long-awaited sequel, Lin must find his way in a Bombay run by a different generation of mafia dons, playing by a different set of rules. <BR><BR>It has been two years since the events in Shantaram, and since Lin lost two people he had come to love: his father figure, Khaderbhai, and his soul mate, Karla, married to a handsome Indian media tycoon. Lin returns from a smuggling trip to a city that seems to have changed too much, too soon. Many of his old friends are long gone, the new mafia leadership has become entangled in increasingly violent and dangerous intrigues, and a fabled holy man challenges everything that Lin thought he'd learned about love and life. But Lin can't leave the Island City: Karla, and a fatal promise, won't let him go.

The Spiritual Path
The author of the international bestseller Shantaram takes us on a gripping personal journey of wonder and insight into science, belief, faith and devotion. Drawing on sacred traditions, rigorous logic and the six-year instruction of his spiritual teacher, Roberts describes the step-by-step process he followed in search of spiritual connection - a process that anyone, of any belief or none, can benefit from in their own lives. This gripping personal account of the 'Leap Of Faith' is a compellingly fresh addition to such enduring, spiritually inspiring works as Zen and The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, The Road Less Travelled and The Celestine Prophecy. As Roberts writes, 'The Spiritual Path is a book on spiritual matters that my younger self wanted desperately: one that offers more answers than questions, and helps to reset the spiritual compass.'

Gregory David Roberts, Bombay icin tipki Lawrence Durrellin Iskenderiye, Melvillein Büyük Okyanus, Thoreaunun Walden Gölü icin yaptigini yapmis. Bombayi dünya edebiyatinin sonsuza dek anilacak yerlerinden biri kilmis.Ask, kader ve yaptigimiz secimler hakkinda bildiklerimi ögrenmem cok uzun sürdü, dünyanin pek cok yerini dolasmam gerekti ama hepsinin özünü bir anda, bir duvara zincirlenmis halde iskence görürken kavradim.Essiz, kesinlikle cok cesur ve inanilmaz vahsi. Shantaram en zengin hayal güclerini bile hazirliksiz yakalayacak.Shantaram ilk cümlesiyle tavliyor. Heyecan verici, dokunakli ve korkutucu... Muhtesem bir roman.Cok zekice... Canli karakterlerle dolu. Ama Shantaramdaki en güclü karakter sehrin ta kendisi, Bombay. Robertsin Hindistana, orada yasayan insanlara duydugu icten sevgi, kitabi okumayi daha da zevkli kiliyor. Roberts bizi Bombayin gecekondularina, uyusturucu satilan mekanlarina, batakhanelerine, barlarina götürüyor ve, siz de gelin, diyor. Biz de gidiyoruz.Nefes kesici... Yürekten hissedilen, film gibi izlenen bir yapit. Heyecanla okunuyor.Nefis yazilmis, sayfalarini cevirmekten kendinizi alamayacaginiz bir basyapit. Kisi ve yer adlarinin gizlendigi romanlara bir yanit. Az sayida yabancinin bildigi Hindistanin öteki yüzünün enfes bir anlatimi.Yaratici bir anlatim.Canli ve eglenceli. Duygusal ve sinematik güzellikteki dili cok etkileyici. Engin bir düsünce gücü, siradisi bir vizyon.
