Industry reviews
"If Mishra's approach is broad, it is also deep and often effective."
Publishers Weekly  (11/08/2004)

"An idiosyncratic, sprawling work of some 400 pages, AN END TO SUFFERING moves back and forth between biography, tales of eccentric nineteenth-century European travelers to India, a memoir of Mishra's philosophical education and philosophical manifesto....Mishra's Buddha, the Buddha he portrays as the savior of modernity, is a creation of modernity....Indeed this book is the product of a dizzying process of cross-cultural exchange."
Nation - Donald S. Lopez Jr. (02/21/2005)

"...Mishra's book is in the best tradition of Buddhism, both dispassionate and deeply engaged, complicated and simple, erudite and profoundly humane."
New York Times Book Review - Adam Goodheart (02/06/2005)

"[A] deeply serious and thoughtful book....[Mishra] is a rare writer who is at ease as a historian, philosopher, traveler, and memoirist, and the combination of roles allows him to produce a book that few others could even have attempted"
New York Review of Books - Pico Iyer (03/10/2005)

An End to Suffering

The Buddha in the World

For more than a decade, Mishra tells us, he has pondered a book about the Buddha—whether a historical novel about Siddhartha Gautama, the man who brought about "a revolution of ideas in North India" more than two and a half millennia ago, or a study of his teachings and their influence on Western writers. But, as these projects foundered, Mishra came to accept that his own journey of self-discovery was beginning. The final product mixes an account of the Buddha with the story of Mishra's path from Mashobra, a Himalayan village near the Buddha's birthplace, to the far reaches of India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and beyond. Mishra offers glimpses of the "restless, grasping selves" he has shed—alienated student in Allahabad, ambitious but unfulfilled writer in London—as he struggles to reconcile lessons of the Buddha's life with his own shifting world.
