Book Reviews of Grass Sandals: The Travels of Basho
Book Review: Grass Sandals Review
Summary: 3 Stars
I found this account of Basho's life, poetry and journeys a bit like a piece of modern art work; not sure exactly what the author was wanting to achieve and it seems it is for the reader (viewer) to interrupt as his / her fancy leads. Even as a juvenile's read it leave much to the imagination.
Summary of Grass Sandals: The Travels of Basho
An evocative portrait of the great Japanese haiku poet describes Basho's many experiences as he traveled throughout his beloved native Japan, in a volume that also includes haiku written by Basho and Japanese characters that represent words from the verses.Multicultural Books
