I HIGHLY recommend everyone read Cloud of Sparrows and Autumn Bridge. These two books are written by a buddhist monk and they freakin rock. Very beautiful story about the modernization of japan.

Sykoi 03-12-2006, 08:12 AM Amazon Links: Cloud of Sparrows (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0385336403/103-0116786-4259866?v=glance&n=283155) Autumn Bridge (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0385339119/qid=1142176297/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/103-0116786-4259866?s=books&v=glance&n=283155) Both sound amazing, I'll definitely be checking them out :) Spike 03-12-2006, 09:28 AM Interesting books, however I find it very funny a Buddhist monk would write these. Senshi 03-12-2006, 09:30 AM Yeah, Now I have three things Im planning on getting from Barnes & Noble today. =D selmo 03-12-2006, 11:45 AM I havent read much in a long time, maybe i will check one of these out to see if i can like it! Kamakiri 03-12-2006, 01:01 PM The novels are beautiful. The story is so intricately...crafted...to be awesome. This guy put a lot of thought into these two books. moses 03-13-2006, 02:46 PM Yay more books to read! Im always looking for some good books. Hige Katsumori 03-13-2006, 03:05 PM I very highly suggest looking up a book called Blue Fingers, it is about a normal japanese boy who lives on a farm but ends up being a ninja. It's very entertaining to read.
