Buddha Da
Anne Donovan
Anne Marie's Da, a Glaswegian painter and decorator, has always been game for a laugh, so when he first takes up meditation at the Buddhist Centre, no one takes him seriously, but as he becomes more involved in a search for the spiritual, his beliefs start to conflict with the needs of his wife.






When it came out, Buddha Da instantly installed itself as my novel of the year. Though its initial giddy hijinks suggest a Full Monty style working class high-stakes caper, the story quickly richens and deepens into something that is at turns funny, dark and moving. I found it unputdownable.
