review 1: I admit that it was only after buying this book that I noticed "A Novel" under the title.Given the author's background and previous books, I assumed this was an auto-biography.It certainly reads like one.The characters are well drawn, the pace is good, and the detail is excellent - the India experience comes across strongly.Das Devi is one of the most likable people I've ever met in a book! Mentally a bit off-the-rails, but as stable and dependable as ever a man could be :)
review 2: After breaking up with her current boyfriend, 29 year old Amanda, writer of "Idiot" instruction books and yoga teacher, is sent to India to write Enlightenment for idiots. She is completely at a loss, lonely and scared in a culture she doesn't understand, trying to write a book on ... morea topic that is foreign to her. As she begins to search for the way into an understanding that will allow her to write the book, she becomes caught in dealing with the details and repercussions of her past, including the discovery that she is pregnant. Nevertheless, she continues her efforts, deals with seemingly insurmountable adjustments with the help of an unexpected new friend, Devi Das, and pulls the reader along with her to the end. It was a well researched, fascinating and entertaining read, but I felt a bit of let down with the ending. less
