A spirited collection of poems inspired by the Zen practice of one of
America's most celebrated authors, Jim Harrison, a New York Times
best-selling author.
The popular novels of Jim Harrison (1937-2016) represent only part of
his literary output--he was also widely acclaimed for the "renegade
genius" of his powerful, expressive poems. After Ikkyū is the first
collection of Harrison's poetry directly inspired by his many years of
Zen practice. The writing here is at once thought-provoking and
passionate, immortalizing a celebrated American writer's relationship to
Zen in beautiful verse. These short, spirited poems will inspire you to
look at life differently with a newfound sense of wonder and gratitude
for everyday moments.
