Book of the Week: 21 Erotic Haiku for Samantha
Michael John Phillips is one of the most enigmatic poets ever to adopt haiku as his main mode of expression. Throughout his series of half a dozen haiku chapbooks he alighted upon a single theme—female beauty, in its many manifestations—and explored it, sometimes with monotony, sometimes with flair, often with humor, but utterly unlike anyone else ever has.
You can read the entire book in the THF Digital Library.
Do you have a chapbook published 2009 or earlier you would like featured as a Book of the Week? Contact us for details.
Haiku featured in the Book of the Week Archive are selected by Jim Kacian, following a concept first explored by Tom Clausen, and are used with permission.
