Description:

HAIKU HARVEST : 2000–2006 is a compilation of the eleven issues of Haiku Harvest : Journal of Haiku in English, plus two issues of Haiku Noir and one issue of Ku Nouveau. This immense collection of poetry is from poets in thirty countries around the world. It includes the full range of haiku in English (and several related forms, like tanka) from classic to avant-garde styles. Haiku Harvest was dedicated to publishing and promoting haiku, both in the western tradition of classical haiku and in all related forms, including tanka. It gave generous space to poets so they can demonstrate the range of their haiku and it promoted innovation by providing a showcase for poetry in new forms that are serious attempts to assimilate the haiku and tanka traditions in forms within the English poetic tradition.
