Description:
|
Finding one's bliss, let alone following it, can be quite a challenge, and that is the case for Cambridge professor, P.R. Chandrasekhar. Chandra's failure to be awarded a Nobel prize in economics (yet again), and an unfortunate altercation with a bike, make him a reluctant late starter to such a quest. California is his destination, where with his estranged family's blessing, he submits to a course in self-awareness at the famous Esalen Institute, a first step on the road to enlightenment ...
An amusing, insightful and gently satirical story that reminds us that it is never too late to re-evaluate the important things in one's life.
Comments from BDS Reviewers:"I thought this would be light and fluffy, but there's more to it than that."
"Initially I didn't bond with the main character, but by the end of the book I was a fan."
"I like books about cranky people and this guy sure starts off cranky. I enjoyed his self discovery."
"It is a thoughtful story which has made me think about my own motivations and choices."
"There will be something for everyone to relate to in this story."
