Lingzhao's Helping

The Hidden Lamp: Stories from Twenty-Five Centuries of Awakened Women, edited by Florence Caplow and Susan Moon, 2013.
"This book contains one hundred koans and stories, each with a commentary by a contemporary woman teacher, including Joan Sutherland. Collecting these stories in a single volume is a wonderful thing, as is showing such a range of modern dharma voices. Most of the commentators engage with their texts in very personal ways, as stories rather than koans, which is one of the powerful ways to connect the generations. Lovely to fire up this hidden lamp!"
