Shantaram

Those who are following this blog would've heard about this book, written beautifully by Gregory David Roberts. My first experience with this book was back in 2005 and now I'm hoping to find new things from it. And I did...

One of the reason why we crave love, and seek it so desperately is that love is the only cure for loneliness, and shame, and sorrow. But some feelings sink so deep into the heart that only loneliness can help you find them again. Some truths about yourself are so painful that only shame can help you live with them. And some things are just so sad that only your soul can do the crying for you.

Keep an eye out for other blurps from Shantaram. Have patience. The book has close to 1000 pages.
