Eastern Structures No. 14 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798670712668)

The world's premier publisher of Asian forms in English, Eastern Structures picks up where Contemporary Ghazals left off, publishing English-language examples of the Middle Eastern form, but now in addition to Korean sijo and Japanese forms such as haiku and tanka - rendered exclusively in the 5-7-5 and 5-7-5-7-7 syllabic structures. Issue 14 features the ghazals of Mace Hosseini, William Dennis, Norma Jenckes, Eric Torgersen, Eugene A. Melino, and R. W. Watkins; the sijo of Edward Baranosky and Debra Woolard Bender; the haiku and tanka of Priscilla Lignori, Danielle Woerner, Neal Whitman, Jim Wilson, Susan Tamara Darrow, James Lignori, Kiersta Recktenwald, Michael T. Smith, Sari Grandstaff, and several others; an introductory essay on the ancient Japanese sedoka form by Don Ammons, with examples by Ammons and R. W. Watkins; and the essays 'The Single-Sentence Haiku' and 'Tenacious' (a consideration of the formal English haiku's longevity and perseverance) by Jim Wilson.
