Product Overview
This unique book takes readers on a fascinating journey through Japan’s heartland, introducing them to subjects ranging from birds, bamboos and blossoms to omikuji, origami and shishiodoshi, in settings ranging from canals and gardens to castles and temples.
All the poems are written in a form traditional to Japan, an ancient poetic form known as tanka (or waka).
Kyoto Sakura Tanka is Andrew Lansdown’s fifteenth published collection of poetry and his first published collection of photography.
