A review by javierivero
Zen: The Art of Simple Living by Shunmyō Masuno

2.0

Very short but shallow read, this book gathers 100 life pro tips, none of them are developed in a comprehensive narrative, instead the author just persuades the reader through a few paragraphs for each one of these 100 tips to trust him completely because Zen Buddhists are very wise and you should act accordingly.

There are indeed a couple of chapters with good advice, don’t get me wrong, but the lecture is not deep enough for the reader to actually grasp these concepts in a theoretical nor practical way. Think of it as a book with high spirited quotes
