LONDON CALLING is the first in a series of Dharma Noir novels, a new genre that shines a wisdom light on the Dark Age we now inhabit.
JALU YOGI is a wandering Tibetan Buddhist master, amiable yet unpredictable with a taste for thriller-mysteries and bearing witness to the murkier side of modern life.
Drawn to Europe when he hears about civil uprisings and brutal government backlashes, master sleuth Jalu finds himself drifting through the debris of post-Financial Crisis Spain.
Jalu narrates the story of Virginia Blake, an elderly Englishwoman who spent most of her unremarkable life in Madrid but now finds herself and her bewildered companions embroiled in an international incident and a deadly game of cat and mouse through Andalucia.
This exhilarating and often moving tale is stylishly subtle, simple yet profound, and lovingly dedicated to filmmaker Pedro Almodovar.
FAKE PRAISE INDEED:
The best novel I’ve ever read! - The author’s elderly aunt.
Some people read for entertainment, some for insight. London Calling has it all. - A man in a university.
I felt so drawn into the whole thing I saw rainbows. - A woman who once photographed the Dalai Lama’s cat through a fence.
Bruno Nua may be the best author we’ve ever produced! - The Ballyfermot People.
It’s the Buddha’s teachings pretending to be a novel. Don’t read it! - Vatican Magazine
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
BRUNO NUA is a Buddhist Philosopher from Ireland. Raised in a rough suburb of 1970s Dublin he says he came out as ‘queer’ at 15, studied classical guitar from 16 and - being an insufferable narcissist and lover of French - went to Paris alone for the Summer at 17. He fitted right in.
Aged 18 in 1983, Bruno met Michael, the man of his dreams. They are still together and spend most of their time sitting side by side.
Graduating with a Masters from Trinity College Dublin, Bruno was first a teacher in Ireland’s richest school then in Ireland’s poorest school.
A student of the most eminent Buddhist masters for almost thirty years, he became a university lecturer in Philosophy, specializing in the Wisdom Teachings of the Buddha.
Bruno says he now spends much of his time floating between Europe and Asia like a gypsy, and a mirror.
