The author of Breakfast with Buddha brings his quality whimsy to a fresh novel about NY e book editor Otto Ringling and Mongolian monk Volya Rinpoche, who embark on a road trip from Rinpoche's deep breathing center in North Dakota to the glitter and glitz of the NEVADA strip. What prompts the trip is Otto's lately transformed life, having lost first his wife then his job, and then discovering both his children set off for lives of their own. With Rinpoche's assistance, he hopes to find a new so this means in his life and a fresh way. But what begins as a silently contemplative quest becomes a lot more as both men travel through the heart of the American Midwest, witnessing the decimated lives of so many American natives and presenting Otto new perspective on the studies he is experiencing in his own life. Along with these inner awakenings for Otto, there is also a very real hint of menace in the novel, as men show up who may be looking to ensure that the earth never has learned of the lifetime of Shelsa, the eight-year-old child of Rinpoche and Otto's sister, Cecilia. Shelsa has consistently shown that she has the markings and the intuition of a religious leader, leading to speculation that she can be the new Dalai Lama.
