Acerca de este título

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Professor Chandra Follows His Bliss by Rajeev Balasubramanyam, read by Ramon Tikaram.

There’s no problem Professor Chandra can’t solve. Except for one: the secret to happiness


In the moments after the accident, Professor Chandra doesn’t see his life flash before his eyes, but his life’s work.

He’s just narrowly missed the Nobel Prize (again) and even though he knows he should get straight back to his pie charts, his doctor has other ideas.

All this work. All this success. All this stress. It’s killing him. He needs to take a break, start enjoying himself. In short, says his doctor (who is from California), Professor Chandra should just follow his bliss.

Professor Chandra doesn’t know it yet, but he’s about to embark on the trip of a lifetime.

Reseñas de la crítica

I loved this beautiful beautiful book. It's tender and compassionate, written with exquisite care and verve, and so so SO funny (Marian Keyes)
Chandra is a delightful creation: peevish, intolerant, intellectually exacting, unwittingly eccentric, nerdy, needy let lovable. The book, like its picaresque hero, is a one-off (Patricia Nicol)
This brilliant and eloquent novel, which puts into words so many unutterable annoyances, is a sort of Zen satire in which tolerance and understanding mingle with hilarious criticism of contemporary mores. It’s a wonderful read (Wendy Holden)
Rajeev Balasubramanyam gently pokes fun at the modern fondness for positivity, but tells a disarmingly positive story... The writing is elegant and witty and the comedy is always underpinned with humanity; a life without bliss is no life, and the gradual dawning of Chandra’s self-awareness is genuinely uplifting (Kate Saunders)
Balances satire and self-enlightenment... a surprisingly soulful family tale that echoes Jonathan Franzen’s Corrections in its witty exploration of three children trying to free themselves from the influence of their parents (Ben East)
Uplifting literature, or up-lit as it’s called by publishers, is dominating the bestseller charts... One of the funniest is Professor Chandra Follows His Bliss by Rajeev Balasubramanyam... Beneath the comedy lie serious concerns. Wellness, capitalism, mollycoddled minds intolerant of political difference: Balasubramanyam’s issues are current (Francesca Angelini)
By turns charming and witty, this is an effortless, uplifting read that has many pertinent observations to make about family relationships (Simon Humphreys)
His journey provides a genuine look at what happiness is or might be, as well as being properly, heart warningly funny. A joyful take on grasping second chances (Alexandra Heminsley)
After the brilliant, stressed, cynical economist Professor Chandra has a serious accident, he is told to take a break and 'follow his bliss' to California. Little does he know he'll discover a thing or two about happiness
A gentle ride of a book that tackles all of life’s big questions and also manages to be very, very funny
