Book Description
A new cover edition of Anne Donovan's bestselling debut novel
From the Back Cover
'A delightfully deadpan look at what happens when one family member decides that he's unlocked the secret of the universe.'
Independent
Buddha Da tells the endearing story of a working-class Glaswegian man who discovers Buddhism, rejects old habits
and seeks a life more meaningful, only to alienate his immediate family in the process.
Moving seamlessly between three family members, Donovan's clear-eyed, richly expressive prose sings off the page. Each character's voice has its own subtle rhythm and the conclusion is a poignant mixture of hope and lingering reservations. Buddha Da is a delight from one of Britain's most exciting writers.
'An enchanting novel in which ordinary lives are illuminated with extraordinary charm.'
Daily Telegraph
'Buddha Da reads like a Scottish Roddy Doyle, dealing with potentially heavy issues with an addictive blend of pathos and humour.'
Observer
'Her deliciously corkscrewed tale flows with the sap of everyday life.'
Sunday Times
