If you like to read genre stuff by now-dead authors with the ability and desire to describe balls (as in testicles) a number of different, yet equally erotic, ways, you'll love this one. I, however, only moderately enjoy such flashy strokes of the pen.

The best book I own. Sometimes I wish it were the only book I owned. The prose is quick, zen and enticing. It reads like a movie and leaves you wanting.

Zen myths are weird. This one is kind of a Sisyphus story in Japanese packaging - all individually wrapped, but strangely unsatisfying.
