In 17 syllables a haiku strives to perfectly express a moment, each word reverberating through layers of meaning. Haiku is a path into Zen, delving beneath the surface world to grasp the heart of the matter. This new collection of 100 haiku masterpieces spans three centuries. The poems are grouped by the different hours of the day and accompanied by classic Japanese prints and paintings.
Jonathan Clements is a linguist and writer known for his work in Japanese animation and his translations of Takeshi Maekawa.
