About The Book

the road north is a word-map of Scotland composed by Alec Finlay & Ken Cockburn as they travel through their homeland guided by the Japanese poet Basho whose Osu-no-Hosomichi (Narrow Road to the Deep North) is one of the masterpieces of travel literature. Ken and Alec left Edo (Edinburgh) on May 16 2010 - the very same date that Basho and his companion Sora departed in 1689 - and on their return on May 16 2011 they published 53 collaborative audio & visual poems describing the landscapes they had seen and the people they had met.
