Combining memoir, anecdote, travel journal, prose poem, diary and essay Maitreyabandhu's A Cezanne Haibun records a month spent alone in the Sierra Aitana mountains.

'Haibun' - a term first coined by the Japanese poet Matsuo Basho in a letter to a disciple in 1690 - alternates prose with haiku or haiku-like poems.

These are unforgettable meditations on the life and work of the post-impressionist painter Paul Cezanne (1839 - 1906).
