The Canticle of Ibiza (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Justin Kurian | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Ibiza, Spain, 1988. Hedonistic villa parties, hidden Buddhist temples, lost marijuana farms, and outlandish artist communes. John encounters these and more on his quest to find his estranged friend Gunther. Along the way, he meets vibrant spiritual seekers, jaded hippies, and possible love-an international DJ named Diana Clarke. He also begins to discover mystical elements to Ibiza, and to life, he never expected to encounter. Will John find Gunther and start life anew, or will his oppressive past, and precarious present, destroy him on his quest for salvation and love?

"The Canticle of Ibiza is a beautifully crafted and fully realized story of one man's journey into both light and darkness. Justin Kurian's seminal tale of self-understanding and self-realization evokes Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness with the beaches of Ibiza replacing the African Congo. The Canticle of Ibiza manages a savory blend of decadence, hedonism and spiritual growth." -Jon Land, New York Times bestselling author

"The Canticle of Ibiza is a most refreshing tale, something uniquely different, a salvation adventure set in a mysterious island paradise peopled by ancient hippies, cannabis communists, starving artists and odd ducks. Here Robinson Crusoe meets Under the Tuscan Sun. Kurian's glittering descriptions and unusual turns of phrase are as colorful and unique as is his story. A terrific read!" -Tom Vetter, bestselling author
