Title: Pure Trash (in a bad way)
Product review: Having read some of the author's other books, where I enjoyed descriptions of Korean lifestyle/customs, I ordered "Buddha's Money". While I am no prude, I have not come across a book with so much seemingly needless and gratuitous sexual violence, many of them so badly rendered that they are cartoonish. Some other recent books, such as "The Girl Who Played with Fire" also have more than their share of sex and violence, but at least they are written as part a coherent story. "Buddha's Money" is a grotesque, badly written book. As a book-lover, throwing away a book is a last resort, but that is what I did with my copy and I actually felt better once I chucked it into the garbage can.
