Haiku Garden
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Good book ... just wish it were a bit longer. I like the way the poems and illustrations are incorporated together.
Assuredly a Winner and a Fantastic Gift.

Left alone to my own vices one afternoon at a friend's loft, I happened upon A Haiku Garden which I devoured with delight and then made an excuse for my friend to invite me over again.The woodcut reproductions are priceless and a source of inspiration to a non-artistic poet. A wonderful "tea table" book and a perfect gift. In fact, I plan to buy a copy for myself!
Excellent and inspiring.

I recommend this wonderful book for the inspiration it gives. The poetry is accessible and charming. The reproductions of woodcuts are beautiful. Anyone who would like to try writing Haikus as a meditation, or for fun will find that it starts to happen almost automatically.
