About this item
by Vera Kochanowsky (Author)
Traveling to a new place can change your perspective and your life. Such was the case when American music teacher Vera Kochanowsky took her first trip to Japan and became completely captivated by the novel sights, the unique culture, and the charm of the people. Inspired to begin an intense study of Japanese classical literature after her return home, she immersed herself in the works of Bashō, Buson, Issa, Shiki, and other famous Japanese haiku poets. This led her to begin writing her own haiku, culminating in this collection-101 Haiku, A Journey Through the Seasons, a mosaic-like portrait of a year filled with the shifting colors of life's experiences: joy and sadness, friendship and solitude, growth and decay.
