My favorite poetic form is the Japanese haiku. For me, the simple three line of 5-7-5 syllable poems have always been Zen like because it captures a moment in time. This collection has selections of haiku from numerous Japanese masters such as Basho, who is considered the greatest of all haiku masters, Buson, Issa, Shiki, Nakamura, Sokan and numerous other great haiku poets.This volume is organized into three parts. It is important to read the introduction to better understand the essential differences of language when evaluating and translating a haiku from Japanese to English. Part one covers haiku with the pulse of nature theme. The second part has haiku with a basic theme of human voices and the final section deals with the resonance and reverberation haiku poems. There are also a number of beautiful drawings taken from Japanese masters which help illustrate the focus on nature and life of the haiku poem form.One of the many things I love about this book is the end section where it provides information of the life of all the poets who have haiku in this book. As a life time student of the Japanese martial arts, as well as a lover of haiku, I was not surprised that many of the ancient Japanese poets were also Samurai.In conclusion, if you are a lover of the Japanese haiku poetic form, you will want this book in your personal collection.Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Haiku Moments: How to read, write and enjoy haiku) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Delightful *by M***6 on Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2013* Fresh collection of Japanese poetry spanning the ages. Your favorites Basho Issa and Rikyu are here, but the anthology also has more modern poets, including a nice representative number of women, who are often unjustly ignored in other collections.A quick read, but you will want to go back and savor many of these excellent translations. Humor and pathos and Zen and life. Worth your hard earned dollars for some time spent beside a pond with frogs and carp and a few good friends. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A beautiful book *by T***K on Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2018* I have over 1000 books, many of which I love. This is one of my top 5. It is beautiful. I travel a lot - like Basho! Please provide a Kindle version so it can be with me all the time. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/213866965-haiku-an-anthology-of-japanese-poems-shambhala-library](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/213866965-haiku-an-anthology-of-japanese-poems-shambhala-library) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
