Description: | Select Guide Rating An exquisite collection of internationally bestselling Japanese poetry. Machi Tawara''s first book of poems, Salad Annivsersary, combines the classical ''tanka'' form with the subject of a modern love affair. It became a sensation, selling over 2 million copies - and the ''salad phenomenon'' in Japanese culture was comparable to the ''bananamania'' that followed publication of the first novel by Tawara''s contemporary Banana Yoshimoto. Contains 15 poems: ''August Morning'' ''Baseball Game'' ''Morning Necktie'' ''I Am the Wind'' ''Summertime Ship'' ''Wake-up Call'' ''Hashimoto High School'' ''Pretending to Wait for Someone'' ''Salad Anniversary'' ''Twilight Alley'' ''My Bisymmetrical Self'' ''So, Good Luck'' ''Jazz Concert'' ''Backstreet Cat'' ''Always American'' Pushkin Collection editions feature a spare, elegant series style and superior, durable components. The Collection is typeset in Monotype Baskerville, litho-printed on Munken Premium White Paper and notch-bound by the independently owned printer TJ International in Padstow. The covers, with French flaps, are printed on Colorplan Pristine White Paper. Both paper and cover board are acid-free and Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified. |
