Ruth Ozeki's book A Tale for the Time Being was selected as the Ann Arbor/Ypsi Reads book for 2015.
Ozeki, an author, filmmaker, and Zen Buddhist priest, talked with librarians Anne Drozd and Sara Wedell about the process of writing and mapping out this intricate book, finding inspiration for her characters, and how her cat denied her permission to use his name in the book.
