«101 cuentos zen» is a collection of zen stories by Nyogen Senzaki and Paul Reps, published by Galaxia Gutenberg in hardback (160 pages, in Spanish).
It brings together 101 short tales from Chinese and Japanese zen masters spanning more than five centuries, taken from the Shaseki-shu and other Japanese sources. These narratives present zen as an experience of self-knowledge and serenity, and speak of peace, intuition, devotion to work and the beauty of the incomplete.
This second edition in the Narrativa Clásica collection includes the translation by Jordi Fibla; the work was originally published in London in 1939.
For readers interested in Eastern philosophy, zen Buddhism and short wisdom tales; also as an introduction to zen thought.
Paul Reps was an American artist, poet, and author. He is best known for his unorthodox haiku-inspired poetry that was published from 1939 onwards. He is considered one of America's first haiku poets.
