Anyone read Pure Heart,Enlightened Mind: The Zen Journals of Maura 'Soshin' O' Halloran??

Maura "Soshin" O' Halloran apparently had an 'enlightenment' experience and whilst travelling back home, had a car crash and died aged 27!

She travelled to japan to become a buddhist monk/nun! And she kept journals and wrote letters to her father!

After she attained enlightenment she was travelling back home to see her family (and probably spread the teachings back in her country) but she died before arriving home!

I love journals and diaries (buddhist related or not)

And ive just recently come across this book!

Cant wait to start reading!
Have you read it by any chance?
