Arson, theft, felony, violence, aptly describes the lifestyle of a despicable, drug-crazy, knife wielding fugitive on the run. Having deceived snipers perched on gun-towers along the rim of a high security Australian prison, this gabby gangster trotted his way to a new beginning in a far away antipodean colony. The near death, thrilling escapades seasoned with figments of imagination were recorded by Gregory Roberts in his masterpiece- ‘Shantaram’.
Lin, as in the book, discovers a golden hearted, socio-friendly, individual within himself while being a hard worker. The combination and its lucrative products were attributed the Bombay breeze.
The perseverance and selflessness of this interlacement engineer who adapts himself to the ways of the impoverished, shanty-dwelling masses of the city draws the attention of the local mafia, thus finding a place in their good books.
As one sails through the pages of the grueling journey with romantic interludes of this firang in Bombay, a mental picture of every nook and edge is filmed thanks to the meticulous emphasis on detail of every inch of the city he covers.
Apart from the gang-wars, knife-fights and killing the book has a lot to offer and is a fitting read for an ambitious youngster.
“Do not wait; the time will never be "just right'. Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along”
- Napoleon Hill
