Shantaram Audiobook Summary
“Me tomo mucho tiempo y a la mayor parte del mundo aprender lo que se sobre el amor y el destino y las decisiones que tomamos, pero el corazon de esto me llego en un instante, mientras estaba encadenado a una pared y siendo torturado”.
Asi comienza esta epica e hipnotizante primera novela de Gregory David Roberts, ambientada en el inframundo de la bombay contemporanea. Shantaram es narrado por Lin, un convicto fugado con un pasaporte falso que huye de la prision de maxima seguridad en Australia por las calles llenas de una ciudad donde puede desaparecer.
Acompanados por su guia y fiel amigo, Prabaker,los dos entran en la sociedad oculta de mendigas y gangsters de Bombay, prostitutas y hombres santos, soldados y actores, e indios y exiliados de otros paises, que buscan en este lugar notable lo que no pueden encontrar en otros lugares.
Como un hombre cazado sin hogar, familia o identidad, Lin busca amor y significado mientras dirige una clinica en uno de los barrios pobres de la ciudad, y sirve a su aprendizaje en las artes oscuras de la mafia de Bombay. La busqueda lo lleva a la guerra, la tortura en prision, el asesinato y una serie de traiciones enigmaticas y sangrientas. Las claves para desentranar los misterios e intrigas que unen a Lin estan en manos de dos personas. El primero es Khader Khan: padrino de la mafia, criminal-filosofo-santo, y mentor de Lin en el inframundo de la Ciudad Dorada. La segunda es Karla: escurridiza, peligrosa y hermosa, cuyas pasiones son impulsadas por secretos que la atormentan y sin embargo le dan un poder terrible.
Barrios marginales ardientes y hoteles de cinco estrellas, amor romantico y agonias carceleras, guerras criminales y peliculas de Bollywood, gurus espirituales y guerrilleros muyahidines— esta gran novela tiene el mundo de la experiencia humana a su alcance, y un amor apasionado por la India en el corazon. Basado en la vida del autor, es en cualquier medida el debut de una voz extraordinaria en la literatura.
