"Fabulous. In a single volume, Martha Sherrill provides a road map
to modern spirituality, highlighting its immense perils while
seeing its possibilities. With deep, often profound human
understanding, she goes to the heart of American Buddhism, taking
the reader on a surprising, literate, and frequently chilling
journey. Sherrill retains her reporter's tough-mindedness and
distance, but dares to skate wondrously and unsettlingly close to
her subject. The tone and style reminded me of detective Philip
Marlowe on the case with all the old frankness, intimacy, and
drive."
--Bob Woodward
""The Buddha from Brooklyn" is a first-rate investigative report
and an enormously engaging read, too. I read it with deepening
fascination."
--John Berendt
"Martha Sherrill takes the reader on a riveting journey into the
seductive and sometimes disquieting world of Tibetan Buddhism.
Perceptive and en- lightening, "The Buddha from Brooklyn" is
compulsive reading."
--Sally Bedell S
