Ed is having a hard time
- at work in his love life & well generally Then he meets an unlikely Buddhist
- who drinks & smokes & talks his kind of language Bit by bit things begin to change Ed doesn't always take Geoff's advice Or when he does he lapses at the crucial moment His path to understanding is not a straight one especially as life keeps throwing more & more 'stuff' at him Often he fails
- like most of us in fact But sometimes he manages to get it right & when he does surprising things begin to happen In The Buddha Geoff & Me Edward Canfor-Dumas brings all his skills to bear in an absorbing story of everyday city life where the characters stand out with all their human strengths & weaknesses & the ending brings Ed
- & perhaps all of us?
- a hope we didn't necessarily expect The Buddha Geoff & Me
- for anyone who's ever begun to wonder what the whole damn thing is all about
