#26 GREGORY DAVID ROBERTS

This was an experience. It is almost impossible to write this description. Gregory David Roberts is best known for his novel Shantaram which has sold over 6 million copies since being published. It is the best piece of writing, story telling, truth, poetry and wisdom I have come across. Shantaram is inspired by true events from Gregorys life - A convicted bank robber and heroin addict who escapes from Pentridge prison to live a life in exile in India. To label Gregory as just a writer would be an injustice as he is a musician, a spiritual leader and an inspiration to so many artists, and he is Australian! Enjoy!
