Baisao was an influential and unconventional figure in a culturally rich time period in Kyoto. A poet and Buddhist priest, he left the constrictions of temple life behind and at the age of 49 traveled to Kyoto, where he began to make his living by selling tea on the streets and at scenic places around the city. Yet Baisao dispensed much more than tea: though he would never purport to be a Zen master, his clientele, which consisted of influential artists, poets, and thinkers, considered a trip to his shop as having religious importance. His large bamboo wicker baskets provided Baisao and his customers with an occasion for conversation and poetry, as well as exceptional tea.The poems, memoirs, and letters collected here trace his spiritual and physical journey over a long life. This book includes virtually all of his writings translated for the first time into English, together with the first biography of Baisao to appear in any language. It is bound to establish Baisao s place alongside other Zen-inspired poets such as Basho and Ryokan."

SHE VOWED TO SAVE A YOUNG GIRL. From the Hardcover edition. The ghoulfriends' new GFF, Wydowna Spider, starts to clear the cobwebs about the mysterious threat to Monster High.

But when Rochelle Goyle, Robecca Steam, and Venus McFlytrap uncover a second ancient group of monsters...the fate of the student disembody is in their hands! Lu Xun (Lu Hsun) is arguably the greatest writer of modern China, and is considered by many to be the founder of modern Chinese literature.

This volume presents brand-new translations by Julia Lovell of all of Lu Xun's stories, including 'The The Old Tea Seller: Life and Zen Poetry in 18th Century Kyoto free ebook Real Story of Ah-Q', 'Diary of a Madman', 'A Comedy of Ducks', 'The Divorce' and 'A Public Example', among others.
