The Third Buddha
a new novel by
Jameson
Currier
Like Currier’s previous work (Where the Rainbow Ends, Dancing on
the Moon), the author once again targets the big themes of modern gay life in his new novel: identity, faith, homophobia,
romance, and the complexity of relationships, but at the heart of The Third Buddha are the little acts of random
kindness that continue to astonish in times of crisis and war.
Jameson Currier expands his richly detailed storytelling to an international level in
this new novel, weaving together the intertwining stories of the search for a missing journalist in the Bamiyan region of
Afghanistan with a young man’s search for his older brother in Manhattan in the aftermath of 9-11. The result is a sweeping,
multi-cultural novel of what it means to be a gay citizen of the world.
