Summary "Stonehouse was a fourteenth-century Buddhist monk who became a mountain hermit at the age of forty. His poems ring with beauty and clarity as they illuminate a life at the extremes of austerity and satisfaction, and in this revised bilingual Chinese-English edition, the award-winning translator Red Pine recovers Stonehouses's captivating spirit."--Cover page [4].
