Essences at The Haiku Foundation
The blog hosted by Carmen Sterba, haijinx quarterly’s editor for Japan.
from The Haiku Foundation’s introduction:
Essences began as a column written by Carmen Sterba in the North American Post in Seattle, WA, a bilingual newspaper in Japanese and English. Its purpose is to go back to the roots of the “haiku movement” in North America: the major poets, the individual styles of haiku, the books, the journals and conferences as they evolved from the sixties and seventies onwards. This will be a short version, so feel free to add information and comments as we go along..
