at Dawn 
Selected 174 poems by Hideo Yokokawa
The poetry of Hideo Yokokawa strikes me right away as deeply honest and immediate in intent and in expression of human feeling. I believe it is because of this essential integrity that he frequently comes upon phrasing both felicitous  and profound. His use of the English language is often beautiful in its direct  simplicity, a welcome diversion from the tortured mode now popular, and his poetic observations are both original and just.   ---  Phyllis Hoge Thompson

 


Beyond Love and Prayer 
Selected 180 poems by Phyllis Hoge Thompson
From the first, for Phyllis Hoge Thompson herself, poetry has been the
most reliable world expanding far beyond the daily lives of love belief  and prayer. Her world of poetry is deeply limpid, often
joyous, some-time sometimes sad but always courageous standing firmly on the land.
Here half her life devoted to pure art has been presented silently.   
---  Hideo Yokokawa

Pillars of A Landscape  
Selected 64 poems by Aftab Seth
He shows the poet's spiritual landscapes, touches and arouses somethinglying deep inside one's heart. Whether it is a joy, a sorrow or a pain, people see their lives more gently, and are encouraged to experience various aspects of their life much deeper in their future. The landscape in his spirit and his deep insights into life have surely inspired me. Now I will continue to read his poems much deeper to follow his spirits and to inspire me more.  --- Yuichiro Anzai

Carrying Water in a Sieve
Selected 79 poems by Jeanne Shannon
"How to express" is an important factor for poetry. In this respect, Jeanne Shannon has succeeded in creating a unique method by utilizing words which usually are only distantly related to the standard/traditional diction of poetry. Also, I like her attentiveness to the natural world, which is highly regarded by many readers over here in Japan, too.
