What happens when a free-spirited, modern American girl goes on a spiritual quest into structured, traditional Japanese Zen life? Gesshin Claire Greenwood was a liberal, free-spirited American girl who found meaning and freedom in disciplined, traditional Japanese Zen life. However, she came to question not only contemporary American values but also traditional monastic ones. This book is about becoming an adult--about sexuality, religion, work, ethics, and individuality--but it is also about being a human being trying to be happy.
