The Buddha of Suburbia

Hanif Kureishi is another favorite author of mine. “The Buddha of Suburbia” did not disappoint. I fell in love with the eccentric characters.

This is a coming of age novel depicting a character who is different from those around him. Kureishi tells Karim’s story with his witty, descriptive talent. Karim, in trying to find himself, is rebelling against the suburban middle class conformists.

There is some harsh content (sex, drugs, adultery, etc) so if you are easily offended, skip this one. Otherwise you should check it out this humorous yarn.
