White Pine Press, 1995 - 200 p.
This anthology gathers over 1500 years of Chinese Zen (Ch'an) poetry, from the earliest writing including the Hsin Hsin Ming written by the Third Patriarch to the poetry of monks living in this century. Drawn together by the Zen thread, this ragged line of poet-hermits forms a profound lineage for many contemporary poets.
