Author Norman Fischer, a major figure in contemporary Zen Buddhism, is founder of the Everyday Zen Foundation and former abbot of the San Francisco Zen Center. In this collection of short
essays, reviews, interviews, and book introductions, he reflects on literature, photography, art, Zen, meditation, poetry, Buddhism, language, and experimental writing as a spiritual practice.
The pieces were first written in the early 1980s through 2013; most have been previously published, and some have been revised by the author. Each piece includes brief introductory notes on
context and original publication. The author has written many other spiritual and literature books for general readers, students, scholars, and spiritual seekers. Annotation ©2016 Ringgold,
