"The ‘Crazy Clouds’ of this book are those innovative, nonconformist Zen masters - wandering seekers and sages often disguised as beggars, nomadic preachers, and ‘madmen’ - whose singular Zen Way has profoundly influenced Zen Buddhism. Spanning a period from eight-century China to twentieth-century America, Crazy Clouds portrays the lives and teachings of Zen masters like the fierce Rinzai, the easygoing Layman P’ang, the renegade Ikkyu, and the lay monk Nyogen Senzaki - Zen figures whose interpretations of even the most radical approach to Zen remain invaluable guides to people interested in Zen today.”
