The Village Zendo Book Group Meeting
will discuss
A TALE FOR THE TIME BEING
by Ruth Ozeki
The book group will discuss the widely acclaimed novel A Tale for the Time Being. It is particularly relevant for us now because of its relation to our Winter Ango study text, Dogen’s Uji. From a review of the book in Tricycle:
“Ruth Ozeki, an American Japanese and a longtime Zen practitioner, begins the novel with an epigraph from Uji, and the book can be read as one long commentary on Dogen. I say this as one who loves Dogen’s writings, but it’s not so important. Readers need not know anything at all about Dogen.”
Kojin chose the book and will facilitate our discussion.
The meeting is scheduled for January 24th at 5pm.
Here is the book at Greenlight Books:
