A New Resonance 2: Emerging Voices in English-Language Haiku

by Jim Kacian

The proliferation of poets engaged in haiku continues, both in popular culture and in a more serious literary vein. A New Resonance 2 features 18 poets whose work is just becoming known on an international level of haiku, and gives each poet sufficient space to permit his or her voice to emerge. The first volume of the series, issued two years ago, won a Haiku Society of America Merit Book award for best anthology.
