Book Report #78 - The Open Road

The Open Road: The Global Journey of the Fourteenth Dalai Lama by Pico Iyer

I really liked hearing Pico read selections of this book. The Dalai Lama has been in his life since he was a boy and he's taken many journeys to Dharamsala and around the world to see him. That inspired him to write a book about the man from a secular perspective since he is not Buddhist.

It was a difficult read for me because there was no plot. It felt a little scattered and I had a hard time focusing. It took about two weeks to get through it.

General consensus: Not for me but maybe for you.
