Leaving My Broken House is a tribute to the Japanese poet Matsuo Basho. This beautifully illustrated book is a haibun, a blend of prose and haiku verse, in the tradition of Basho's travel sketches from the late 1600s. It records the first year of a similar pilgrimage 300 years later by Saku-Jin (Evolving Man) across southern Oregon, a region nostalgically similar in its seasons and rugged topography to his beloved Japan. Like Basho, Saku-Jin describes not only the landscape and people he meets along the way, but also the spiritual journey advancing simultaneously within.
