Shisendo: Hall of the Poetry Immortals Reviews
-
I found this book accidentally at an old book store. It was a wonderful find. I had no idea what it was about at the time but I had a feeling I should pick it up. It's a wonderful collection of old Chinese and Japanese poems with notes from the translators. I have read quite a few poems but this collection is unique. The poems in this book help you look at the world in a simple and beautiful way.
