Official synopsis Publisher
Sonora Spring Haiku, by poet and neuroscientist Judith Lauter, provides a photographic and poetic account of three spring months in the lush Sonoran desert near Tucson AZ. In a radical departure from the natural settings of most classical’ haiku a world of misty wetness, cranes, pagodas and perhaps a solitary, aged man these poems evoke a stony landscape of space, sun, and sharp edges. Such an extremely wide range of application for the form shows us that poetry is perhaps the most flexible of the literary arts, capable of engaging almost any experience or geography.
