Monk Who Sold His Ferrari
by Lata V. Raghavan
(Bangalore, India)
This is a famous book by Robin Sharma. I just love it. The content is not only very absorbing, but is a great eye-opener too. The book tells you about a successful and very rich lawyer who works relentlessly without a care for his health. One day, in the middle of a court session, he suffers a serious heart attack and is transformed. He sells his coveted Ferrari and retreats to the Himalayas in pursuit of spirituality, inner strength, peace and enlightenment. It is a lovely book that serves a warning to all those who chase money. The book is an ideal go-to-beach one and has many hilarious and poignant moments.
