After thirty years spent eating the brains of overachieving amateur-climbers-who foolishly believed they could summit Mount Everest-a James Bond-loving yeti decides that his life needs more spirituality. But can an abominable monster truly change?

Thus begins an improbable journey overseen by the true Dalai Lama himself, an adventure of attempted enlightenment, dietary restriction, unlikely friendship, and political intrigue.

Bigfoot and the Bodhisattva is award-winning author James Morrow (Towing Jehovah, Shambling Towards Hiroshima) at his best: witty, incisive, and always nonpareil.
