Not only does the book have the actual translation of this 900 year old classic work about gardening. but it is also a look into the aesthetic philosophy of garden beauty. The authors commentary goes into nature. geomancy and taboos and other matters about the classic work. The book has index. glossary and ample footnotes. A quote to make you chuckle states. "When a stone from the mountains or riverbeds is set in the manner of deities. it will become a demon stone. there are many cases throughout the country of trouble stemming from doing this". I will treasure this book forever.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
