The Buddha Train was about art, toxic relationships, and a death-haunted cult called The Dream People. Writing that novel was a somewhat torturous process for me, at least in part because during that time, my daughter Anna’s illness progressed, and so did my sadness and feelings of helplessness. I began to have recurring bad dreams about losing her: Anna in a forest, calling out my name and I cannot find her.
When I confided these dreams to my friend Lucy, she said, “That’s the novel you should be writing.”
