<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Russian novelist Victor Pelevin is rapidly establishing himself as one of the most brilliant young writers at work today. His comic inventiveness and mind-bending talent prompted <b>Time</b> magazine to proclaim him a psychedelic Nabokov for the cyber-age. In his third novel, <b>Buddha's Little Finger</b>, Pelevin has created an intellectually dazzling tale about identity and Russian history, as well as a spectacular elaboration of Buddhist philosophy. Moving between events of the Russian Civil War of 1919 and the thoughts of a man incarcerated in a contemporary Moscow psychiatric hospital, <b>Buddha's Little Finger</b> is a work of demonic absurdism by a writer who continues to delight and astonish.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Structurally cunning and delightfully intense...a work of rare intelligence and bite. <b>--San Francisco Chronicle Book Review </b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Victor Pelevin</b> is the author of <b>A Werewolf Problem in Central Russia and Other Stories, The Life of Insects, Omon Ra, The Yellow Arrow</b>, and <b>The Blue Lantern</b>, a collection of short stories that won the Russian Little Booker Prize. His novel <b>Buddha's Little Finger<b> was shortlisted for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award. He was named by <b>The New Yorker</b> as one of the best European writers under thirty-five and by <b>The Observer</b> newspaper in London as one of twenty-one writers to watch for the 21st century.</b></b>
