Two of Australia’s most accomplished tanka artists collaborate in this bi-lingual (English / Japanese) collection.
Saeko Ogi, whose primary language is Japanese but who is at home in English, and Amelia Fielden, whose primary language is English with wide experience in Japanese, writeΒ their tanka, in both languages,Β in response to those of theΒ other.
ByΒ linking ideas, suggestions andΒ atmosphere, they give their tanka anΒ interpersonal dimensionΒ and a cross-national flavour.Β The poemsΒ are sensitive, delicate and varied. This collection will be a source of enjoyment to the tanka aficionados in both countries, as well as those coming new toΒ the form.
