Newly

A New Resonance 11: Emerging Voices in English-Language Haiku, edited by Jim Kacian and Julie Warther

Product description

The New Resonance haiku community continues to grow, now recognizing 185 members. These poets continue to appear in the major haiku journals and elsewhere, and their books have been accorded the honor of serious and adulatory review and critique. Many are recognized among the leaders of literary haiku in their respective countries and around the world. These seventeen new members to this rather exclusive confederacy, then, have a very high standard against which to measure themselves, but equally high expectations of their ultimate position in the haiku community. This is the eleventh volume in a much-awarded series.
