Favor of Crows: New and Collected Haiku
ISBN: 9780819575821 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Favor of Crows is a collection of new and previously published original haiku poems over the past forty years. Gerald Vizenor has earned a wide and devoted audience for his poetry. In the introductory essay the author compares the imagistic poise of haiku with the early dream songs of the Anishinaabe, or Chippewa.

The haiku scenes in Favor of Crows are...
