Many books on Auroville are available in our local bookstores and in the Auroville Online Store<\/a>. But with such an output of information as our little community is able to muster, it gets a bit tricky to figure out where to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have selected our favourite books on Auroville \u2013 those that give a deeper insight into the highs and lows of our communal adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turning Points<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This book is our all-time favourite when it comes to stories from Auroville. For many Aurovilians it is very dear to their hearts, as it gives a voice to some of our most colourful community members. In this book of interviews, 29 Aurovilian pioneers share their memories of how they came to Auroville, what their life was like back then, and how they lived in the City of Dawn. The book captures the magic of those early days and reminds us of the powerful influence that the Mother had on the course of individual lives. The meetings with Mother described in the book are truly inspirational. A must-read for everyone who is interested in Auroville.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
