Book of the Week: I Shall Not Pass This Way . . . Again

eastlundcover1Madelyn Eastlund was one of the most prolific haiku poets of the early days of the haiku movement, appearing in virtually every journal and haiku publication of the time. This brief chapbook (self-published, 1983) is her only book, and shows her to be a good representative of the norms and sensibilities of her time.

You can read the entire book in the THF Digital Library.
