  • Product Description

    The only collection of haiku by Japanese women, this volume includes translations of 400 haiku written by twenty poets from the seventeenth century (Basho´s school) to the second half of the twentieth. By reading chronologically, the reader comes away with an overview of the way in which this seventeen-syllable form has established itself from its inception to the present. For each poet, Ueda provides a brief biographical and critical headnote, followed by twenty haiku for each. This collection goes a long way toward countering the marginalization of the women writers of Japan.
