Tendrel: A Meeting of Minds is an examination and recollection that ventures into the heart of a unique cultural and intellectual crossroads. Anne Waldman's profound exploration of the fusion of poetics and Tibetan Buddhist wisdom, set against the backdrop of the compelling and provocative figures of Chögyam Trungpa and the celebrated writers of the Beat literary movement, shines a light on one of the most influential periods in American poetry. With the inclusion of never-before-published poetic works by Waldman, Tendrel offers a rare opportunity to delve into the soul of a generation, where the power and essence of spirituality, literature, and activism meet.
