## Description

Book of Haikus (Penguin Poets) [Kerouac, Jack, Weinreich, Regina] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Book of Haikus (Penguin Poets)

Review: Great haiku from Jack Kerouac - I love this book. Kerouac's poetry was too wordy, but the discipline of Haiku imposed limits and the results were wonderful. Here's one haiku from that book: "You'd be surprised/ how little I knew/ Even up to yesterday." I have t hanging on my door.
Review: Review/Haiku - Purchased Lew Welch's Ring of Bone and thus, became cognizant of this ditty because of the "what other customers liked" pictures/suggestions strip at the bottom of the page. So, since desertcart so graciously offers us perusal of things before buying, I was able to see that this book-too would be a wonderful gift for my brother's birthday. (Brother's a big fan of The Beats and of Kerouac in particular). Appreciate the way that the book separates the haikus according to both season plus place (in time and mind or influence). Also like the simple way that the haikus appear on the booklet's 5-by-6 little pages--four apiece. Kinda just traipse along, reading, whilst the mind's eye plucks at these, popping them into the mouth much like little candies: the inevitably sour with the sweet, for sure,(as-is to be respected with any gifted, suffering artist sort) but tasty all the while. Trippy little book. Thanks desertcart!
