Aki Tanioka
award
Tanioka Aki's third tanka collection. Through perspectives on cities and Asia, it addresses violence, history, and people at the margins with charged images and restless movement in language.
One poem presents a person holding up empty cans in both hands, drawing urban crowds and the atmosphere of a market toward an individual body. Selections were later included in Tanioka Aki Kashu.
