Produktbeschreibung
Sheppard Ranbom reveals-through his romance with Japan-how memory and imagination can produce moments of clarity that illuminate our failings and desires, our search for beauty through suffering. "I composed these poems in a Japanese style, favoring immediacy, brevity, and unabashed feeling, to evoke loss and the fleetingness of life. The style also accentuates the intuitive and impulsive aspects of human nature, which can take instantaneous measure of the world and reveal facets of experience and ourselves we tend to hide.

(from the Afterword.)
