Summary
The Reluctant Yogi: A Journey to (Dis)Enlightenment
From Amsterdam’s canals to Cambodia’s temples, Geoff Dyer embarks on a hilarious and unlikely quest for inner peace. He stumbles through Rome, muddles through Indonesia, and finds himself surprisingly zen in New Orleans and bewilderingly lost in Libya.
His aberrant journey takes him from the grit of Detroit to the blissful shores of Ko Pha-Ngan, as he grapples with grievances and occasionally glimpses transcendental calm.
