Ooka Makoto is a distinguished poet. He is also a major critic of poetry, perhaps the finest in Japan today. For this anthology he has searched through the whole range of Japanese poetry. Janine Beichman has been exceptionally successful in conveying not only the sense but the beauty of the poems..." —Donald Keene.
