Rating:  Summary: An Irish voice Review: What moves me very much is the lilting, playful, droll voice of Maura O'Halloran. You would imagine that the Irish character and the Buddhist tradition are poles apart. Maura's passion whirls them together in an instant. This book is a good companion indeed.
