Title: Fish out of water
Review: Please, please buy 'The Way of Zen' by Allan Watts and 'The House at Pooh Corner' by A.A. Milne, rather than this book. Hoff does great injustice to both Zen and Pooh in this trivialization of the artless and the sublime. Only the kind of people who think a five-star haut cuisine meal is a rip-off because you could get more at McDonald's for the same money could possible think this a good book. Zen is not explicable (see Watts' book) and Milne (re: Pooh) is inimitible. These observations are doubly true in the case of someone, like Hoff, who has a severely restricted vocabulary, no facility with the language and a complete lack of respect for his subject matter. Please, please DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!
