A Year of Haiku

In A Year of Haiku, a dazzling collection of more than 100 poems based on the classical haiku form, poet and neuroscientist Judith Lauter explores the connections between the cycles of the earth and responsive biorhythms within the individual. The result is a monthly chronicle of both inner and outer weather, populated by wind, rain, sky, sun, moon; forests and seashores; and the many plants and creatures animating the poet's world. An intensely intimate, vivid, and precise poetic sequence, this book offers insights and observations that will long linger in the reader's mind.
