Amiin Maalouf | "The Gardens of Light"

    This is the story of Mani, a forgotten figure, but whose name is yet, paradoxically, on everyone's lips.


    When using the words "Manichean" or "Manichaeism" one rarely thinks Mani, painter, doctor and Eastern philosopher of the third century, called "the Buddha of Light" by the Chinese and "the apostle of Jesus" by the Egyptians . His tolerant and humanist philosophy wanted to reconcile the religions of his time. It earned him persecution, torment and hatred...

    "Maalouf's Mani has the ring of life... A sad, glowing book." - The Washington Post

    "...has the feel of a 1950's Hollywood epic, in which men gesture boldly and deliver words that deserve to be immediately carved in stone." - The New York Times Book Review
