Book Review of On Love and Barley Haiku of Basho (Penguin Classics)

On Love and Barley Haiku of Basho (Penguin Classics)
reviewed on


A refreshing text. The introduction provides helpful context (although I read it after reading pages of the haiku). Basho's voice is so ... "now," as he is writing today. Each haiku is sort of present moment to root yourself in. So let the present happen to you. Read Basho!
