  1. I’ve got Hackett’s up there on my shelf, slated to be read this summer (have already read the Veenhof), but I also plan to read Michael J. Sweet’s translation of Desideri: Mission to Tibet. It may seem odd that a book by (and about) a Christian missionary, and heavy on the “idolatry” polemics, would be published by a Buddhist publisher, Wisdom, but, well that’s part of the attraction of it. It’s a little large to balance on your knees at the beach, so I plan to do it at home with the air-conditioner blasting. If I get some time left over I’ll read straight through One Hundred Thousand Moons… Well… it may take that many moons to succeed at it. Actually, I’ll probably keep on doing what I have been, flipping it open at random pages and reading for awhile.
