Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. [8], 472 pages. Illustrations (color). DJ has slight wear and soiling and is price clipped. Dominique Lapierre (born 30 July 1931 in Châtelaillon, Charente-Maritime, France) is a French author. The City of Joy is about the unsung heroes of the Pilkhana slum in Ko…lkata. Lapierre donated half the royalties he earned from this book to support several humanitarian projects in Kolkata, including refuge centres for leper and polio children, dispensaries, schools, rehabilitation workshops, education programs, sanitary actions, and hospital boats. To process and channel the charitable funds he founded an association called Action aid for Calcutta lepers' children. Aware of the corruption in India, he organizes all his fund transfers to India in such a way as to ensure that the money reaches the right person for the right purpose. His wife since 1980, Dominique Conchon-Lapierre is his partner in the City of Joy Foundation. He was awarded the Padma Bhushan, India's third highest civilian award in the 2008 Republic Day honours list. Derived from a review posted on-line: Dominique Lapierre has now moved his gaze towards Calcutta, The City of Joy. What Lapierre has presented is not a collage from the scrap-books of history but a subtle ground-level view of the human situation, done with great compassion. It is at this asphyxiating inferno that Lapierre unfolds his epic on the life and times of the Bengali peasant, Hasari Pal, who is uprooted from his village and its primitive agriculture and takes his residence in the urban slum to join the army of men who slide under the shaft of the hand-drawn rickshaw and pull for a pittance the passengers in what may be one of the most degrading rides in the world. The City of Joy is seen through the eyes of Stephan Kovalski. the Polish missionary who settles down in the slum one day in a pair of jeans and a kurta, without the obligatory cassock of the priest. To join him later in the strange crusade is the American doctor, Max Loeb, who is struggling against public apathy to set up a leprosy hospital in the slum. First Warner Books Hardcover Printing [Stated].

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. xii, [2], 464, [2 pages. Illustrations (color). DJ has some wear. tears, soiling and chips. Inscribed on the half-title page by the author. The inscription reads To Joseph, This epic in faith, hope and love With warmest good wishes D. Lapierre. Dominique Lapierre (bor…n 30 July 1931 in Châtelaillon, France) is an author. On several occasions, Collins and Lapierre met while on assignment. They had to compete with each other for stories. But they decided to join forces to tell a big story which would appeal to both French and anglophone audiences. Their first bestseller Is Paris Burning? sold close to ten million copies in thirty languages. In this book they mixed the modern technique of investigation journalism with the classical methods of historical research. Two of Lapierre's books Is Paris Burning? (co-written with Larry Collins) and City of Joy have been made into films. His wife is Dominique Conchon-Lapierre. Kathryn Spink is the author of prize-winning biographies, which have sold worldwide in over fifteen languages. She is the authorized biographer of Mother Teresa of Calcutta, chronicler of the South African women's human rights organization, the Black Sash, and translator of City of Joy and other books by Dominique Lapierre. The City of Joy is about the unsung heroes of the Pilkhana slum in Kolkata. Lapierre donated half the royalties he earned from this book to support several humanitarian projects in Kolkata, including refuge centers for leper and polio children, dispensaries, schools, rehabilitation workshops, education programs, sanitary actions, and hospital boats.
