Description
The Lady and the Monk: Four Seasons in Kyoto by Pico Iyer explores the author's experiences living in Kyoto, Japan. Initially, Iyer went to immerse himself in Zen Buddhism, the tranquil beauty of Kyoto, and the traditional aspects of Japanese culture. However, the narrative transforms when he meets Sachiko, a Japanese woman with a deep appreciation for both traditional and modern cultural elements. Their relationship offers a poignant and ironic lens through which Iyer examines cross-cultural fascination, misunderstanding, and the juxtaposition of Japan’s old and new worlds.
