| everyone loves a good fable, this is certainly one. the protagonist is julian mantle, a high-profile attorney with a whacked-out schedule a shameful set of spiritual priorities. of course it takes a crisis (heart attack) to give mantle pause. pause he does--suddenly selling all his beloved possessions to trek india in pursuit of a meaningful existence. the himalayan gurus along the way give simple advice, such as, "what lies behind you what lies before you is nothing compared to what lies within you." yet it is easy to forgive the story's simplicity because each kernel of wisdom is framed to address the persistent angst of western white-collar professionals. --gail hudson --this text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. |
