Thomas K. Shor, Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo: A Step Away from Paradise (Paperback, 2017, City Lion Press) 4 stars

Each time I arrived at Kunsang’s with my tape recorder and paper he would get an impish smile, burst out laughing aad say, ‘And then what happened?’ But his question was clearly rhetorical. It was obvious he had been thinking of what story to tell me next. His stories weren't often linear but there was an internal, often logic-defying thread that strung the incidents of any given story together and wove the stories themselves together into a coherent whole. Since the stories of Tulshuk Lingpa’s life all culminated in his setting forth for the Land of Immortality, every incident seemed designed to loosen the rational mind from its moorings.
