Seeking help with his basketball game, Shainberg embraced Zen Buddhism in 1951 and was catapulted on a life-long spiritual journey. Alternately comic and reverential, Ambivalent Zen chronicles the rewards and dangers of spiritual ambition and presents a poignant reflection of the experiences faced by many Americans involved in the Zen movement.

I will admit that this book has its moments. Shainberg uses an easy-to-read back-and-forth style, continuously shifting between his late adolescence and various periods of his adult life, as well as interspersing periods in the development of Zen practice both in the United States in the 60's-70's as well as its origins in Japan. And Shainberg's journey would make for a fun movie, so long as Woody Allen was cast as Shainberg and Pat Morita, in a version of his character from Happy Days, played Kyoto Roshi. ( )
