      abstract = {This volume of seasonally-arranged poems is a guide to the  appreciation and enjoyment of the great variety of modern  Japanese haiku. From turn-of-the-century masters to poets  of the twenty-first century, 300 of Japan's best modern  haiku are introduced by the author, a leading contemporary  haiku poet and critic. Each of the poems, many of them  scarcely known, is sensitively discussed together with the  background of the poem and the relations between the poets.  This volume includes poems from the end of the nineteenth  century through the beginning of the twenty-first century  by the most important writers of modern haiku. These  writers include Masaoka Shiki and his disciple Takahama  Kyoshi, as well as poets who experimented with new styles  such as seasonless haiku, free form haiku, and multi-line  haiku. Alongside these are works by well-known novelists  and other cultural figures who were not professional haiku  poets, but for whom haiku was an important part of their  lives, such as Kubota Mantarō, Akutagawa Ryūnosuke, and  Natsume Sōseki. The book also features seasonal  photographs at the beginning of each chapter, and an  additional 20 haiku by the author. --},
