Miyamoto Musashi·sword and Zen (all 4 Volumes)
About This Novel
"Miyamoto Musashi: Sword and Zen (Classic Collector's Edition) (set of 4 volumes in total)" is a martial arts novel full of Zen charm. A story of cultivation from swordsmanship to kendo, and a sentiment of treating life as a place of soul cultivation. Miyamoto Musashi emerged from the mystery, lived a legendary life, and set a milestone in the history of kendo with his "Five Rings Book". On May 19, 1645, the sixty-two-year-old Miyamoto Musashi died suddenly at his home in Chiba Castle. He was once a killer, a ronin, and a swordsman, but in his understanding of the ultimate purpose of life, he transcended himself. He spent his whole life completing his pursuit of "Tao". This book is a novel technique that Yoshikawa has practiced for twenty years. It uses a broad humanistic perspective to weave the true appearance of historical figures, showing Musashi's "sword and Zen uniformity" and true inner world, making this enigmatic historical figure eternally vivid on the page.

Miyamoto Musashi's lifelong pursuit of kendo allowed him to constantly surpass himself
Good-looking, the growth and experience of a generation of swordsmen are condensed into one book
From the bottom of my heart, I don't have a good impression of little Japanese people.
Just average.
The middle part seems lengthy. This is the problem with most long novels. And the fight scenes aren't that good either.
Too bad
I downloaded it for free for a limited time, but I have to mark it again the next day? Why weren't other books like this before?
Read the novel after reading The Vagabond
