In January I answered a stranger's call in the FB to help emptying a service house flat from books and I took selected four bags. I'm not into zen or any other religion, but fell for the wonderful and humorous illustrations. Today I also read the book and vowed never to become a zen nun. But do remember:
"Matter of life and death is great. Time runs quickly; nothing remains; it waits for no man. You should not waste your time."
Also I figured out the mystery of one hand clapping in two minutes, although it takes ten to fifteen years of a monk...
The late person whose books I took seemed - judging by her books - widely read and interested in many subjects, so I would be delighted if her books continued their journey and found new readers. Please let us previous readers know where the book travels and what you thought about it.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Off to the monthly Helsinki bookcrossers meet-up.
Thank you for the book, Kirjakko!
I wonder why they used a font that is difficult to read. This font must be READ. It does not jump from the pages up to your brain. Reading this book is almost like reading Russian.
