In August 1968, naturalist-explorer Peter Matthiessen returned from Africa to his home in Sagaponack, Long Island, to find three Zen masters in his driveway--guests of his wife, a new student of Zen. Thirteen years later, Matthiessen was ordained a Buddhist monk. Written in the same format as his best-selling "The Snow Leopard," "Nine-Headed Dragon River" reveals Matthiessen's most daring adventure of all: the quest for his spiritual roots.

Recensioner i media

"Very few writers have the courage, inner experience, and literary technique to take us into the reaches of mystic awareness. Matthiessen has; his prose is among the finest of our time--at once sensual and austere, sinewy, yet full of warmth, eloquent yet reverent, polished clean by silence and awe. Nine-Headed Dragon River is a clear gift to us from a complex man who has schooled himself to speak of central things with a most honorable exactitude."--Andrew Harvey, Vogue <br>"Remarkable, memorable nonfiction. Matthiessen's prose is as strong and pure as ever."--Duncan Spencer, Washington Post <br>"Peter Matthiessen's book embodies the spirit of Zen in America."--Hakuyu T. Maezumi, Zen Center of Los Angeles
