The Wild, White Goose: The Diary of a Female Zen Priest by Roshi Jiyu-Kennett
Roshi Jiyu-Kennett left England in 1961 to join a Zen monastery in Japan. At the time it was still very unusual for a Westerner to want to become a Buddhist monk, and even more unusual for a Western woman. THE WILD, WHITE GOOSE, based on her diaries, tells the story of Roshi Jiyu-Kennett's search for the truth and how she found enlightenment.
