Andy Marino

    Andy Marino vyrůstal na severu státu New York a jako dítě si představoval epické bitvy s piráty z Lega a mapoval fiktivní světy videoher. Jeho raná tvorba, ovlivněná J.R.R. Tolkienem, začala v jedenácti letech, i když jeho první román zůstal nedokončen. Po studiu angličtiny na NYU se Marino plně věnoval psaní, přičemž ho k románu UNISON SPARK inspirovala manipulativní síla sociálních sítí, o níž jeho kniha pojednává.

    • Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has achieved a significant victory for his party and gained a global profile, yet he remains an enigma. Supporters view him as a visionary leader, while detractors see him as polarizing. Is he authoritative or authoritarian? Decisive or divisive? A team player or a loner? In this riveting biography, Andy Marino presents an objective account based on exclusive interviews with Modi during multiple meetings. The narrative does not shy away from controversies surrounding Modi, such as the Gujarat riots and the debate over the Gujarat model of governance. It offers an unbiased exploration of the most influential figure in contemporary Indian politics, delving into Modi's values, influences, and leadership style. Personal anecdotes from his early life, his spiritual wanderings in the Himalayas, and his political ascent are included, revealing his vision for India and his philosophy on religion and politics.
