Today, my novel, Buddhaland Brooklyn, goes on sale. That follows Sunday’s New York Post review, naming my little book this summer’s “Required Reading.” It has also made the July-August cover of the presitgious American Poetry Review; the punch-above-its-weight literary magazine has excerpted Buddhaland Brooklyn’s entire Chapter Ten. The literary blog, Book Hog, says, “Mr. Morais’ brilliant depiction of his wonderful cast of characters is very true to life….you will love this wonderful story.”
I hope those who enjoyed my first novel, The Hundred-Foot Journey, will give me a second chance, and those that have never read my fiction, will give Buddhaland Brooklyn a test run. Reverend Oda promises to not to waste your valuable time.

Intrigued by the title, I downloaded the audiobook version of this entertaining and uplifting novel. I haven’t enjoyed a read so since many, many books ago. It’s unique and not at all sentimental. It’s such an easy read, yet this novel has substance and poetry! The audio version is beautifully narrated by Feodor Chin and was a wonderful way to experience the novel.
Dear Connie
Thank you so much for your generous comments. Very pleased it brought you some pleasure. Will make sure Feodor Chin sees your comment. My other novel, if you liked this one, is called The Hundred-Foot Journey.The audio for 100 Foot is comng out this October, I believe. Again, thank you for leaving a message. Best, Richard
