Synopsis

The Basho Variations gathers thirty\-four translations of Basho\x27s famous haiku. In doing so it enters an august (albeit scanty) lineage of maverick redactions of this poem that include (as inaugural) the \x22\x22frog pond plop\x22\x22 by Dom Sylvester Hudard and the \x22\x22fog prondl pop\x22\x22 by Gerry Gilbert. Inspired by Raymond Queneau\x27s Exercises in Style , it also joins the company of his earlier \x22\x22Restricted Translation with Imperfect Level Shift (After Basho)\x22\x22 as well as the Frogments from the Frag Pool: Haiku after Basho by fellow ludicians de langage Gary Barwin and Derek Beaulieu; Beaulieu?s solo ((plop)) and Basho\x27s Frogger (a Zen video game) created by the Prize Budget for Boys.
