You Are Not Here and Other Works of Buddhist Fiction

Unknown Author

4.9/5 (22407 ratings)

Description:The stories in You Are Not Here and Other Works of Buddhist Fiction dramatize the spirit of Buddhism, often with wit, always with verve, and each in some distinctly vivid way. Only a few of these stories touch on the Dharma explicitly and this book takes you on an inward tour across the whole world-to the jungles of Indonesia, a fog-shrouded park in San Francisco, the sun-blistered African veldt, a Burmese monastery surrounded by gun-fire, and the church-like sanctuary of a Nebraska barn, just to name a few. Collectively these stories paint a living portrait of the face of Buddhism, and readers may discover that that face is a strangely familiar one-and that every journey only ever leads home. Edited by Keith Kachtick--the author of Hungry Ghost: A Novel (A New York Times Notable Book),You Are Not Here and Other Works of Buddhist Fiction--offers more surprising and transcendent work from some of fiction's famous names, alongside that of names you've never heard before--but surely will again: Lama Surya Das, Keith Kachtick, Robert Olen Butler, Kate Wheeler, Anne Donovan, Samantha Schoech, Mary Yukari Waters, Andrew Foster Altschul, Jess Row, Anh Chi Pham, Sean Murphy, Pico Iyer, Dan Zigmond, Michele Martin, Sean Hoade, Jeff Davis, Jake Lorfing, Geshe Michael Roach, Anne Carolyn Klein, Dean Sluyter, Mark Salzman, and Hal Hallstein.A good scent from a strange mountain / Robert Olen ButlerRingworm / Kate WheelerBuddha Da / Anne donovanThe good people of Lake George / Samantha SchoechCircling the hondo / Mary Yukari WatersYou are not here / Andrew Foster AltschulFor you / Jess RowMandala / Anh Chi PhamThe tale of THE / Sean MurphyAbandon / Pico IyerHumans / Dan ZigmondThe later years of her life / Michele MartinSamsara suite / Sean HoadeSwallow koans / Jeff DavisDistant mountains / Jake LorfingMeditation / Geshe Michael RoachDream of a former life / Anne Carolyn KleinNothing / Dean SluyterThe laughing sutra / Mark SalzmanIn search of the rainbow body / Hal HallsteinWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
