Šibumi - audioknihovna

Trevanian's novel has remained a bestseller since its first publication in the United States and has become a classic and cult work in its genre. It offers the listener not only excellent literature but is also a novel that can truly change your life. Nikolaj Hel, who appears in the text gradually – slowly and suddenly, drastically and miraculously, comically and sadly – has a single life goal – shibumi. A spiritual state for which Western languages do not have the right words, let alone understanding. And those who lack understanding the most is a multinational criminal organization that has the world in its grip. Nikolaj has become their target. A former hitman who must leave his peaceful Basque residence and the arms of his lover to plunge into the boundless swamp of intrigue, traps, corruption, and lies. Perhaps even so, through the mud and dirt of a world-class level, he will manage to reach shibumi. Trevanian is a pseudonym behind which hides a university professor of history, which explains many of the described historical events and details, political contexts and perspectives, philosophical depth, and the geographical and temporal breadth worthy of a modern Renaissance artist.
