Book of the Week: An Introduction to Haiku
George Klacsanzky taught haiku with an indelible Zen tang, evident in his own work and, as is apparent here, that of his protégés. An Introduction to Haiku (self-published, 1995) selects poems written during a haiku workshop held at a Poulsbo (Washington) café in January and February 1995.
You can read the entire book in the THF Digital Library.
