About This Book
"Hakutani's study is of interest to those concerned about haiku poetics or writing original haiku as it traces haiku from Basho to its reception in the English-speaking West (Noguchi, Yeats, Pound, Kerouac, Wright) to contemporary innovative experiments influenced by aspecific cultural focus such as jazz (Sanchez, Emanuel)."
- Bruce Ross, editor of Haiku Moment: An Anthology of Contemporary North American Haiku
