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.
Jim Harrison is the author of numerous novels, including Legends of the Fall, Julip, and Wolf- A False Memoir. His most recent previous book of poetry is The Theory and Practice of Rivers.
"Behind the words one always feels the presence of a passionate,
exuberant man who is at the same time possessed of a quick, subtle
intelligence and a deeply questioning attitude toward life. He
writes so winningly that one is simply content to be in the
presence of a writer this vital, this large-spirited."— New York
Times Book Review
"After Ikkyu typifies the attitude of making the best of an
unpredictable and yearning universe, turning basic survival into
koans that make the reader think and wonder about the world we live
in. Harrison has the poet's gift of making the most everyday
occurrences suddenly seem miraculous and fresh."—Kathleen Youmans,
Small Press
