One Hundred More Poems from the Japanese - Paperback

by Kenneth Rexroth (Translator)

Back Jacket

Kenneth Rexroth's One Hundred More Poems from the Japanese (1955) proved such an extremely popular book that he put together a sequel. The poems are representative of a large range of classical, medieval, and modern poetry, but the emphasis, as in him companion Chinese collections (1955 and 1970), is on folk songs and love lyrics.
