Description
"Wind in the Pines is a colleciton of writings that seek to illuminate the nature and aesthetics of chanoyu as a Buddhist path. Beginning with works on the art of linked verse (renga) that directly influenced the development of the way of tea, this book includes documents that are associated with the central figures in the formation of chanoyu in the spirit of wabi--the venerable poverty of the hermit's thatched hut--and that have been treasured by practitioners down to the present"--
