Hello!
The Buddha of Suburbia is an autobiography.
It's about Karim, a mixed-race teenager, who was desperate to escape suburban South London to have new experiences in London in the 70's He eagerly seized an opportunity when a life in the theater presents itself to him.
When there was nothing left for him to do in London, he went to New York for ten months. Returning to London, he took on a part in a TV soap opera.
Through his work with two theater companies, Karim gets to know new people from completely different backgrounds( like the working-class Welshman Terry, an active Trotskyist who wanted him to join the party, or Karim's lover Eleanor who was an upper middle class.
Mixing with the people surroundings Eleanor and Pyke ( a strange theater director), he realized that they were speaking a different language, they received a good education, which was not valued in the suburbs.
In The Buddha other characters and their struggles to make it in London are described.
For example: Eva was portrayed as a social climber at war with the city: she was not ignored by London once she s tarted her assault. She was climbing ever higher, day by day. As she started to take London, moving forward over the foreign fields of Islington, Chiswick and Wandsworth.
Later in the novel the main character's father ( who was an Indian immigrant, living with his family in a grey London suburb) was suddenly discovered by London's high society, which is hungry for exotic distractions, and so he became their Buddha-like guru, though he himself did not believe in this role. His son also did not believed in him and at the same time, he had his first erotic experiences.
I hope that this has helped you♥
