January

Autor M. Kei

Opening with the cold days of January and following the poet through a year of his life, "January, A Tanka Diary, " is the latest collection from the internationally respected tanka poet and editor, M. Kei. Melancholy, hopeful, or satiric, these are poems alive to the beauty of the world that surrounds us. He has the ability to capture subjects as small as a single snowflake or as big as history, all told with an intimate honesty. In Kei's hands, the ancient five line tanka poem breathes with contemporary life.

"Step inside this book and meet a magician-a man who knows the secrets of the sea and the land and the sky; a man who can catch the vastness of oceans and the smallness of sparrows in the same few words in five lines."-Joy McCall, author "of circling smoke, scattered bones"
