Currently reading Alan Watts' autobiography. I found him by way of Frank Herbert, when I was reading all of his Dune books. Herbert mentions in his notes he was influenced by Zen and had read Alan Watts.
Speaking of influence, the House of Atreides is from the Greek classics. And I'm currently reading Homer, by way of training my mind classically.
So the Zen and the classical Homer criss-cross with Alan Watts and Herbert.
The only thing missing is chess.
