Book Reviews of Miyazawa Kenji: Selections (Poets for the Millennium)
Book Review: An excellent and affordable collection from a magnificent author
Summary: 5 Stars
I actually have a previous book containing many of these poems also by Hiroaki Sato as well as this book. That book Spring and Asura from the 70's (and therefore older than I by a significant amount) is a extremely rare book I came across by fate. Unfortunately, I was hesitant to lend it out or recommend it because it is impossible to replace. This solves that problem
In contrast, this is a very affordable priced collection any person could add to their library. To give it more value there is a wonderful piece on the front of the book giving key background information on Kenji that is will do wonders for his first time readers.
If you are interested in more of Kenji's work (especially his stories which are not featured here) I recommend checking out the bilingual section of any Japanese bookstore. He is very popular for English learner's texts. Also the abstract anime biography Spring & Chaos(English edition by Mixx Entertainment, now Tokyopop)is a very enjoyable non-traditional biography.
