This review is from: A Box of Zen: Haiku the Poetry of Zen, Koans the Lessons of Zen, Sayings the Wisdom of Zen (Hardcover)
When you hold this set of three books, it feels as if you are holding something precious and rare, and in fact you are. The three books are beautifully illustrated; an introduction to each volume explains that which you are about to read and the verses and text were chosen with care. The books are described as being produced to ". . . delight the senses and enlighten the mind." They easily fulfill that promise.

This review is from: A Box of Zen: Haiku the Poetry of Zen, Koans the Lessons of Zen, Sayings the Wisdom of Zen (Hardcover)
This really is A Box of Zen featuring three books on the subject of Zen.
The books are: Haiku the Poetry of Zen, Koans the Lessons of Zen, and Sayings the Wisdom of Zen.
I purchased this book to better understand the Zen way of life -- part of the culture, wisdom and poetry of Japan. I became interested in this set of books while studying and writing haiku -- a poetic form that complements Zen. The book is beautifully decorated throughout with Oriental art. A little treasure set that I plan to keep in my haiku library.
