Synopsis: Sale edition. Playful, thoughtful, and important, the 28 poets found in this anthology offer innovations on traditional and time-honoured Buddhist poetic forms. It includes the works of Philip Whalen, Gary Snyder, Michael McClure, Sam Hamill, Jane Hirshfield, Norman Fischer, Diane di Prima, Mike O'Connor, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Eliot Weinberger, Chase Twitchell, Leslie Scalapino, and others.
This unique collection brings us African Americans reading the black diaspora through the eyes of exiled Tibetan monks; Americans of Vietnamese and Tibetan heritage wrestling with the cultural norms of their parents or ancestors; Zen and Dada inspired performance pieces; and groundbreaking writings from the pioneers of the Beat movement. With its electic mix of acknowledged elders and newly emergent voices, this landmark anthology vividly displays how Buddhism is influencing the character of contemporary poetry. |
