The Traveling Tree: The international bestseller from Japan

William, Eli K. P., Hoshino, Michio, Miyakita, Shogo, Kirzner-Priest, Eli William

Over half a million copies sold in Japan In this enduring classic, Michio Hoshino shares his reflections on the natural world, and our place within it. Beautifully written, this book is a collection of Hoshino's writing published at the peak of his artistic prowess as a writer and photographer, only one year before his career was tragically cut short at the age of 43 by a fatal bear attack in the Kamchatka Peninsula. First published in Japanese, The Traveling Tree is a literary triumph, available in English for the first time. 'Hoshino's prose sits somewhere between Henry David Thoreau's matter-of-fact observations in Walden and Annie Dillard's poetical musings in Pilgrim at Tinker Creek.' Asian Review of Books
