Bodhisattva Blues

Meer over het boek

An insightful novel of everyday life, for anyone who's ever wondered whether enlightenment really is compatible with the daily commute Ed is stuck in a rut--his part-time "career" is going nowhere, his love life's a joke, and his wallet's always empty. The thing about a rut, though, is at least you know where you are. So when Ed runs into an old acquaintance and is sucked into a drama of street crime and high-stakes property dealings, he turns to the principles that once served him well. Except--he's not sure if he can still trust them, especially as his Buddhist practice is a bit on the rusty side. This is an urban story with a twist and a wry appreciation of the challenges we face every day--whether we're muddling by, or, like Ed, suffering from a severe case of the bodhisattva blues.
