This anthology covers the best works of 76 haiku artists. After all, poetry is an art too. It's the expression of a community, the members of which are passionate about the form and its sister forms like tanka or senryu or monoku. For me, this book is like a family album. Lots of familiar names, familiar words, and familiar works. It's nostalgia in parts, and exploration in others. There's a smile on every page. If you would like to savour some haikai poetry, this is a good book. I would recommend it with 98.68% unbiasedness. The 76th poet is me, so I can't honestly claim zero bias! Whichever poet in this collection I meet, whenever that may happen, I plan to get their signature on their poem page!
