Zen and the Art of Faking It


Zen and the Art of Faking It by Jordan Sonnenblick *


When thirteen-year-old San Lee moves to a new town and school for the umpteenth time, he is looking for a way to stand out when his knowledge of Zen Buddhism, gained in his previous school, provides the answer - and the need to quickly become a Zen master.


My thoughts: San has to decide if it is better to be himself or pretend to be something he isn't, which is something that we all have to decide at some time or another.
