![]() Hanif Kureishi is a brilliant writer and manages to give lovable descriptions of the various characters and relatives in Karim's life and shows them as inspiration for his life. The book evolves from the suburbs of Kent/South London and then progresses through to West Kensington, where I once lived. It's enjoyable and kind of shocking in parts, but the writing is excellent as the story is begun through Karim's seventeen years-old perspective. Having just gotten round nearly thirty years later to reading it, I am impressed and can only recommend it massively. ![]() I was working and living in London at the time and kept seeing it everywhere I went but never had the time to get it or read a copy. When 'The Buddha of Suburbia' was first released at the beginning of the nineties, it became popular almost immediately. ![]()
