4.0 out of 5 stars
An interest in the spiritual.,
By algo41 "algo41" (philadelphia, pa United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Where Do We Go From Here? (Hardcover)
The narrator and his wife are having marital problems. He ends up at a Buddhist center in order to "chaperone" his teen age daughter. He grows as a person and she is transformed from surly teenager to mature woman. While the daughter, and a travelling companion picked up along the way, are engaging, the reader just cannot take them seriously. The narrator is sometimes gratuitously unlikable and dull. But... Dorrie does very well in capturing the center experience and its moments of enlightenment and irritation; the book is fairly well plotted and occasionally funny The narrator's wife is rarely "on stage", but is important, and it is interesting how she gradually comes into focus. This book is part literature, part amusement, and worth reading for its interest in the spiritual.

Great read,
By "mmoszkowicz" (New York) - See all my reviews

This is a great read! Doris Dorrie is a great storyteller...funny and unsettling at the same time. She offers weird characters, suspense, tragedy, comedy and wonderful surprise endings.
