A NEW ZEN FOR WOMEN
Focused on the personal, political, social, and cultural experiences of women encountering Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese Zen in the West, A NEW ZEN FOR WOMEN interweaves the author’s own 24-year experience as a Zen practitioner and teacher in the US, Europe, Israel, Australia, and Japan with those of other women practitioners and teachers.

It is creative non-fiction that combines personal anecdotes, interviews, and historical documentation on western women and Zen in the 20th and 21st centuries.
