I bought this book as I was traveling in Japan. This is an unusual book consisting of diary entries, letters and generally observations and reflections on life and people. It wasn't quite what I expected and wanted to read but it was highly praised by others.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Wow. Uplifting, tragic and mystical in one package - with the concepts central to Buddhism. I like the Japanese scattered throughout. I learned a bit more about the old formal language.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Nobody took it last time, so I borrowed again to go through the Japanese technical phrases. Will leave on the shelf at the meetup.
Enjoyed this - great concept but I kept wishing it had been written by a better writer.
