THE SHAMAN IN STILETTOS

Book ID/图书代码: 03540011B48865

English Summary/英文概要: An enlightening and electrifying memoir for the millions of women who have always dreamt of changing their lives completely but never quite dared.

When celebrity journalist Anna Hunt takes a break from her glamorous, high-powered and fast-paced job to live in Peru for three months, none of her friends take her seriously. A burn-the-candle-at-both-ends 29-year-old with a love of stilettos, chocolate, fast cars and Sauvignon Blanc, she seems to have it all, including a wealthy boyfriend and a comfortable pad in Marylebone. How will she manage in a Third World country?

Anna’s quest takes her from the wilderness of the Amazon jungle where she drinks ayahuasca, one of the most mysterious and potent hallucinogens known to man, to a passionate affair with Maximo Morales, a disarmingly seductive and charismatic shaman who offers her the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become his apprentice. Anna embarks on what is to be an utterly exhilarating, life-changing journey of mysterious rituals and burning passion. Will she find the fulfilment and inner peace she craves? And how will she bridge her two worlds and bring the ancient healing arts home to 21st century London?

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 當《慾望城市》遇見《享受吧!一個人的旅行》。
Anna Hunt是個專門採訪及報導名人的記者,頗具知名度,她每天生活在五光四十色的社交圈中,有穩定及富有的男友、舒適豪華的高級公寓。當某天她突然決定要手邊有一切到秘魯生活三個月,所有的朋友都認為她一定不是認真的,無法適應這第三世界國家的。
從繁華的大都會到原始的亞馬遜叢林,從派對裡的馬丁尼到巫術用的「死藤水」(ayahuasca,用南美一種藤本植物的根泡制而成有致幻作用的飲料)。她在當地認識了一位極為特殊的僧人(甚至有機會成為他的門徒),從他身上看到截然不同的生活態度,以及何謂完成生命的圓滿及達到內心的平靜。
回來後,她將這三個月的經歷視為改變她人生最重要的日子,不僅將分享給所有他周遭的朋友,並透過此書分享給所有的讀者。(Vincent)
