A Little Book on Form: An Exploration into the… af Robert Hass
As someone with scant formal training in the structural and technical aspects of poetry, I found this book both fascinating and frustrating. It wasn't until the very end that I finally accepted that Hass was offering a richly annotated reference work and not a true introductory guide to the subject of poetic form. Now that I'm over my disappointment, I'm.excited to go back and dip into those sections that intrigued me most, mining Hass' lists of exemplars and perhaps even taking up his challenge to diagram some poems. All of that newfound enthusiasm aside, as a reference work his book is missing some important components, namely an index (!) and a good glossary. The presence of those two items would have bumped my review up one star.… (mere)
There are few Japanese Haiku I don't enjoy, whether I grasp them or feel them or not.
Gorgeous and amazing, this was my first poetry book for Robert Hass. I was beyond moved, clipping pictures, telling a friend how they related to piece of my life or present writings, and quoted off. I cannot wait to find more of his!
This book began as a series of newspaper columns that each presented a poem with commentary by the then poet laureate of the United States, Robert Hass. Assembled as an anthology it is a great source for poetry aficionados to dip into and savor the delight of poems great and small. The poems are welcome in Keat's "Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness" or any other season.
