Dalley offers us an intimate account of the streetlife and nightlife of Paris from the misadventures of an unrepentant Zen monk. Dodging landlords, lovers, and estranged family ties, the protagonist is continually brought back to earth by the demands of a young daughter, and the premature illness and death of his Zen master. The dynamo of Horse Medicine's language pulls one into the pages, and makes it a difficult item to put down.

<p>"Entering the Way is not difficult, But you must not love, or hate, or choose, or reject." It took eight years for Rei Ryu Philippe Coupey to complete his kusen (oral commentary) on the Shinjinmei of Master Sosan. Given during zazen (sitting practice) by a respected teacher, kusen are the genuine, immediate link between teaching and practice in Zen. This collected work vivifies the ancient Zen text for modern students of the Way, and is a valuable resource for all those interested in Eastern thought and religion.</p>
