Larry Collins
  (Author)
View Author's Page
He was born in Connecticut and graduated from Yale in 1951. In Paris (1953-1954) he met Dominique Lapierre, with whom he has written five of his great bestsellers. In 1956, he moved to Rome as deputy editor-in-chief and in November of that same year he was appointed correspondent in Beirut for the Middle East. In 1959, he took over Newsweek in Beirut, which gave him the opportunity to cover a time full of political and social unrest in countries like India, Pakistan, Ethiopia, Egypt, and Sudan. In 1961, Newsweek named him head of its Paris office, allowing him to come into contact with circles of Algerian armed violence. In 1962, Larry Collins and Dominique Lapierre decided to join their experience as reporters. In October of that same year, and with the imminent intervention of the US army in Vietnam, Larry Collins took charge of the Newsweek branch in Saigon. But that same day, both he and Dominique Lapierre received an offer from Reader's Digest to write two books, which would turn into many more.

Dominique Lapierre
  (Author)
View Author's Page
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.

El libro llegó en el tiempo estimado, pero no en las mejores condiciones, aunque no creo necesario hacer un reclamo ya que, es un libro antiguo, muy antiguo, no sacan mas ediciones y estaba usado, por lo que como decía no es necesario ni me parece que valga la pena reclamar. Gracias Buscalibre porque lo estaba buscando hace ya muchisimos años y al fin lo tengo, casi creí que no lo encontraría en ninguna parte.
