ISBN: 9781593760083 / Angielski / Miękka / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Here haiku by Basho are translated by Robert Aitken, with commentary that provides a new and far deeper understanding of Basho's work than ever before. In presenting themes from the haiku and from Zen literature that open the doors both to the poems and to Zen itself, Aitken has produced the first book...
