The Novice: Why I Became a Buddhist Monk, Why I Quit, and What I Learned

As I said before, the first several chapters were dull. But, at this point in the narrative, the writer is about to be ordained into a Tibetan sect located in Switzerland. The book is a lot more fun...especially beginning with his resurrection from disaster and drug abuse in the foothills of the Himalayas. His story is more engaging, and he interweaves a lot of Buddhist-speak as he recounts his experience.

The personal history in the first couple of chapters has been tedious.. but his decision to journey to India is more compelling...
