Throughout history, Japanese women have excelled in poetry - from the folk songs of the Kojiki (Record of Ancient Matters) compiled in 712 and the court poetry of the 9th to the 14th centuries, on through the age of haikai and kanshi to the 19th century, into the contemporary period when books of women's poems have created a sensation.This anthology presents examples of the work of more than 100 Japanese women poets, arranged chronologically, and of all the major verse forms: choka, tanka, haikai (haiku), kanshi (verse written in Chinese), and free verse. The poems describe not just seasonal changes and the vagaries of love - which form the thematic core of traditional Japanese poetry - but also the devastations of war, childbirth, conflicts between child-rearing and work, experiences as refugees, experiences as non-Japanese residents in Japan, and more.Sections of poetry open with headnotes, and the editor has provided explanations of terms and references for those unfamiliar with the Japanese language. Other useful tools include a glossary of poetic terms, a chronology, and a bibliography that points the reader toward other works by and about these poets. There is no comparable collection available in English.Students and anyone who appreciates poetry and Japanese culture will treasure this magnificent anthology. Editor and translator Hiroaki Sato is a past winner of the PEN America translator prize and the Japan-United States Friendship Commission's 1999 literary translation award.

Sarah Trunup is a privileged daughter of the mercantile aristocracy of the North American Confederacy twenty-four years after the South won the Civil War. In the sharply divided nation dominated by moneyed monopolies, her luxurious San Francisco existence rests on her father's shipping empire as the Age of Sailing races on and piracy in the style of Blackbeard and Kidd continues with it. In the wake of a major economic victory for the Trunup Industry, Sarah's security crumbles overnight with a hushed midnight meeting, a legal threat from a vindictive competitor, and her father's disappearance. The months that follow become a race between continents, disasters, and assassins as Sarah is immersed in the conspiracies of her family history and the desperately rich. From the Republic of Tokyo to the Mayan Empire, the pursuit of fortune and pride becomes a lesson in loyalty and survival. Alison Lanier lives outside Boston with her family and a small menagerie of pets. This is her first novel. She is now a junior in high school and at work on further novels.

This memoir of girlhood among California’s hippie communities is an “offbeat tale of preadolescence [written] with remarkable honesty and respect” (Publishers Weekly). Born in San Francisco just before the Summer of Love, Clane Hayward grew up on hippie communes throughout the west. Her poignantly funny, sometimes melancholy, and always riveting memoir recounts her extraordinary life up until her thirteenth birthday. School was a particularly happy event—it meant a hot lunch and clothes that matched! But Clane’s mother warned her that schools are just zoos run by the government. From a world of complex relationships, uncertain rules, and constant surprises, Clane forged a childhood. She did it sometimes with, sometimes without, her bong-puffing, Buddha-quoting, macrobiotic mother and her wild-haired, redneck father. Hypocrisy of Disco is an honest, direct, and truly unforgettable tale, and a tribute to the resilience of youth.
