Excellent...Anyone interested in Shiki should consult [this] by all means. -Burton Watson
Masaoka Shiki
These poems--more than a hundred haiku, several tanka, and three kanshi--are arranged chronologically within each genre, revealing the development of Masaoka Shiki's (1867-1902) art and the seamless way in which he wove his life and illness into his poetry.
