In his perfectly crafted haiku poems, Basho described the natural
world with great simplicity and delicacy of feeling. When he
composed The Narrow Road to the Deep North he was a serious student
of Zen Buddhism setting off on a series of travels designed to
strip away the trappings of the material world and bring spiritual
enlightenment. He wrote of the seasons changing, of the smell of
the rain, the brightness of the moon and the beauty of the
waterfall, through which he sensed the mysteries of the universe.
These travel writings not only chronicle Basho's perilous journeys
through Japan, but also capture his vision of eternity in the
transient world around him.
