Commonplace Book

Autor Maitreyabandhu
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 noi 2026

Maitreyabandhu's Commonplace Book, his first book-length poem, follows a year from the death of his Buddhist teacher while he navigates his own spiritual life and smarts at lost love. In a commonplace book, you'd write a recipe, copy a proverb, jot down housekeeping advice, making a precious object out of ordinary things. Part epyllion, part diary, Maitreyabandhu's Commonplace Book mingles tradition with innovation, comedy with tragedy, traversing the bardo between this life and the next.


Maitreyabandhu is a Buddhist teacher and writer. His first book-length collection, The Crumb Road (2013), was a Poetry Book Society Recommendation, and was followed by Yarn (2015) and After Cézanne (2019). A Commonplace Book includes a QR code linking to an online video of Maitreyabandhu reading the whole book with musician Jasper Llewellyn.
