1 Matthiessen, Peter NINE-HEADED DRAGON RIVER
Boston Shambhala 1987 0877734011 / 9780877734017 First Edition Softcover Good+ 
Ex-library - with laminated cover & usual stamps & stickers -light edge & corner wear, some soiling/spotting to outer edge of pages, edge stain inside front cover. Small round light edge stain (perhaps light coffee stain) has soaked into page edges a bit on several pages near front. Interior pages are otherwise clean & tight. 289 pages. FROM A REVIEWER: " This is core reading. It may even be the equivalent, for American Zen Buddhism, of Thomas Merton's SEVEN STORY MOUNTAIN.... As a spiritual autobiography, it is magnificently compelling. It is some of Matthiessen's finest prose, and he writes with complete openness about the cruel death of his wife, Deborah Love (who became a Zen student while he looked on skeptically, only later trying zazen for himself) , his own demons, and his practice without imposing on the reader. It is a fine model of autobiographical writing. It is also a valuable document of the planting of the Zen seed in America.... This is highly suited for people already practicing, but Matthiessen provides plenty of background material on Zen Buddhism as well as his own introduction to the practice, such that any general reader can appreciate and enjoy this marvelous work..." (noto); 8vo
