I would advise you all a book that was for me the best book ever read in life. And if I say so, that just are not un'accanitto player, trust me! The title is published by Blacks Shantaram Pozza, written by Gregory David Roberts. Those born in Melbourne in 1952, graduating in philosophy, is an activist in the student movement, is husband and father of a child. The marriage falls apart, his daughter dies, Gregory finds himself addicted to heroin and, after an armed robbery gone wrong, is sentenced to 19 years in prison. Daring escapes from Pentridge Prison in 1978, became a fugitive across countries and continents with a false passport in his pocket and a guitar strap. A stay in a Bombay slum built close to the modern, gleaming World Trade Centre. Coexists with the last of the earth, and for their sudden you doctor sets up a makeshift hospital, saves lives. It is not enough: the man who now all call Lin, Shantaram, or even (in Hindi, "a man of peace", or "man Peace of God ") is linked to the mafia that rules on the former British colony of India, is the actor in Bollywood, is found in Afghanistan, among the mujahideen guerrillas. Always on the run, injured, sheltering from Pakistan to Europe (Milan plays in the subway, a rock band based in Germany), was captured in Frankfurt in 1990 and extradited to Australia.
Roberts is in the cell that is dedicated seriously to writing. From its existential suffering of homeless individual or family, fills pages and pages of memories happy hours, often bitter, for what would become his masterpiece.
