Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Accomplished, award-winning and prolific poet Kimiko Hahn is back once more with her seventh and anticipated fine volume of poetry, "The Narrow Road to The Interior." Using a new technique for her but will known to others, a free-form style native to Japan called zuihitsu, her poetry retains the same charm that was loved in her previous anthologies, covering her experiences as lover, mother, and a mixed child of eastern and western traditions, "The Narrow Road to The Interior" is deftly and expertly written, making it highly recommended to community library poetry collections and a must have for her fans of her previous books alongside readers new to Hahn's work.
