Synopsis "India mon Amour (in Spanish)"

Collins, llegan a Nueva Delhi para escribir la extraordinaria historia de independencia de la India del Imperio Británico. Éste será el comienzo de una maravillosa historia de amor, desde este primer viaje nace una relación fuerte, intensa y sincera entre la India y el escritor, que desde entonces se dedica por completo a la ayuda humanitaria.

Dominique Lapierre viaja desde entonces sin cesar a la India para participar en programas concretos contra lapobreza extrema. La pluma de Dominique Lapierre transporta al lector a un magnífico e inolvidable recorrido por los rincones y misterios de este país-continente, absorbiendo la vitalidad yel encanto de la gente que allí conoció. Fotos, recuerdos y reflexiones se mezclan creando un testimonio único: India, mon amour. Un himno inolvidable a la vida y a la esperanza, unidos porun hilo común que proviene de un proverbio indio: «Todo lo que no se da se pierde.»

Since he fell in love with India while writing his bestsellers, he allocates half of his royalties and donations from his readers to humanitarian efforts in the slums of Kolkata, in the poorest rural areas of Bengal, and also in Africa and South America. Since 1982, the writer and his wife have helped save thousands of children sick with leprosy or suffering from other physical and mental issues, and have cured a million people with tuberculosis. The organization they founded, Action pour les Enfants des Lépreux de Calcutta (www.cityofjoyaid.org, www.citedelajoie.com), funds numerous programs year after year. For this humanitarian work and his books about the history of the Indian subcontinent, Dominique Lapierre received on May 5, 2008, from the hands of the President of India, the highest civilian award, the Padma Bhushan. This official recognition had been especially requested by seventy-five thousand patients who had been healed thanks to Dominique Lapierre.
