Bathtub Poems: drum beats on a typewriter

Viac o knihe

Seasonal haiku, tanka and short poems exploring nature subjects and tableau within the thriving metropolitan context of Minneapolis, as springboards toward reflection and meditating upon certain agonizing events grappled with at the time of their composition or shortly previous. Including pieces published in many prestigious magazines and literary journals, Bathtub Poems is a comeback story of sorts, about the importance of retaining hope, how integral friends and family, faith and community can be when overcoming adversity, amidst life's many upsets and struggles. 87 pages in length with 1-3 poems on each page (32 of which have been previously printed, in 20 different prestigious journals and magazines including Asahi Shimbun, Bear Creek Haiku, Better Than Starbucks, Fresh Out, Haiku Dialogue, Zen Space) this is Berglund's first full-length collection to be released through a press.
