A Fine copy in a Fine dust jacket. This copy is inscribed by the author. This volume blends personal stories, Zen Buddhist practice, and writing exercises, reflecting on her life, mortality (written during cancer treatment), and the interconnectedness of her inner and outer journeys. It's a collection of essays and memories, often prompted by her Zen training and a diagnosis of breast cancer, that explores themes of identity, loss, and finding meaning through the "zigzag" path of life and creative practice. First Hardcover Printing of the First US Edition.
