At the beginning of the Christian era and near the banks of the Tigris, the story of a man named Mani begins. He would become the founder of a universal doctrine, reconciling three religions and revealing a vision of the world so deeply human and bold that it would end up being fiercely persecuted by all the empires of his time. Amin Maalouf recreates in 'The Gardens of Light' the eventful existence of this singular man, known in Egypt as 'the apostle of Jesus' and in China as 'the Buddha of Light', whose journey takes him from the great metropolis of Ctesiphon to the populous cities of India and finally to the city of Beth-Lapat, where death awaits him.
