"Patricia Donegan and Yoshie Ishibashi are to be deeply thanked for having given us with such articulate care a poetry major in any language and in any place or time." Robert Creeley, poet
The Poetry of Chiyo-ni introduces English-language readers to one of Japan's most luminous literary voices: Chiyo-ni (17031775), a poet, painter, and Buddhist nun who broke barriers to become Japan's most celebrated female haiku master.
Living in an era when haiku was almost exclusively a male art form, Chiyo-ni followed in the footsteps of Basho's disciples, creating verse of crystalline clarity and subtle sensuality. This elegant new edition, enriched with a new foreword by bestselling author and Zen practitioner Natalie Goldberg, brings this eagerly awaited essential volume back into print.
This richly illustrated collection features:
From the simple beauty of morning glories to profound reflections on impermanence, Chiyo-ni's poetry invites quiet contemplation and timeless connection:
a hundred gourds
from the heart
of one vine
A finalist for the Haiku Society of America's Award for Translation, this long-awaited edition is a must-have for lovers of haiku, Japanese literature, and contemplative writing.
