Haiku — The Four Masters of Japanese Poetry
For centuries, the art of haiku — seventeen syllables that capture entire worlds in a breath — has enchanted readers in Japan and beyond. Today, this delicate form of poetry has become a cherished part of our shared literary heritage.
This beautifully hand-bound volume gathers new English translations of classic poems by the four great masters of Japanese haiku — Matsuo Bashō, Yosa Buson, Kobayashi Issa, and Masaoka Shiki — presented alongside the original Japanese text and phonetic transcription.
Elegant in both design and spirit, Haiku offers a serene introduction to one of the world’s most refined and enduring poetic forms.
A timeless keepsake for readers, writers, and lovers of beauty — available at Damernes Magasin.
