A sequel to SHANTARAM but equally a standalone novel, The Mountain Shadow follows Lin on further adventures in shadowy worlds and cultures. It is a novel about seeking identity, love, meaning, purpose, home, even the secret of life...As the story begins, Lin has found happiness and love, but when he gets a call that a friend is in danger, he has no choice but to go to his aid, even though he knows that leaving this paradise puts everything at risk, including himself and his lover. When he arrives to fulfil his obligation, he enters a room with eight men: each will play a significant role in the story that follows. One will become a friend, one an enemy, one will try to kill Lin, one will be killed by another...Some characters appeared in Shantaram, others are introduced for the first time, including Navida Der, a half-Irish, half-Indian detective, and Edras, a philosopher with fundamental beliefs. Gregory David Roberts is an extraordinarily gifted writer whose stories are richly rewarding on many levels. Like Shantaram, The Mountain Shadow will be a compelling adventure story with a profound message at its heart.
作者简介格里高利•大卫•罗伯兹(Gregory David Roberts):出生于澳大利亚墨尔本,他的“真实经历”比任何小说都更有传奇色彩,年轻有才气的大学教师因家庭破裂染上毒瘾,进而抢劫银行,成为“绅士大盗”。被捕后,二十四次的抢劫记录换来了十九年徒刑。越狱后逃亡印度孟买,这段长达八年的流亡岁月,便成了《项塔兰》1、2最真实的蓝本。
柳筠,原名刘勇军,外国文学领域资深译者。译作有《月亮与六便士》《日出酒店》《不安之书》《自决之书》《黑石之墓》等。
[编辑推荐]
❤精彩的故事。
本书主人公项塔兰的故事被读者戏称为“教父+肖申克的救赎+第一滴血”结合体!
❤神奇的阅读体验:能一口气读完的大部头。
迭起的悬念,带感的节奏,呛人的真实,处处不经意的冷幽默,可以吸引你一路不停地读下去,根本意识不到这是一本将近千页的大部头。
❤一本大书,深陷其中,男人的百科全书。
