About the book
Gregory David Roberts presents a fictional epic based on his own life, following a man on the run who arrives in Bombay and finds himself entangled in India's criminal, romantic, and spiritual underworlds. The narrative interweaves crime, intense friendships, forbidden love, and the search for redemption and meaning.
With poetic and detailed prose, Shantaram builds a vivid portrait of contemporary India, its contradictions, and its profound humanity. The novel is a meditation on guilt, forgiveness, inner exile, and the possibility of spiritual transformation through experience and human connection.
