Islands: Poems in the Traditinal Forms of Japan - Softcover
In this collection of English poems in traditional Japanese forms, Robin Skelton links Vancouver Island and the other islands of the Pacific Northwest with the floating world of Japan. An exploration of Sedoka, Dodoitsu, Choka, Somonka, Katauta, Waka, Renga, Mondo, Imayo, Tanka and Haiku - some of which have only rarely, if ever, been explored by a Western poet - Skelton's virtuosity is be heard on every page.
