A poetry collection by Tadao Arita. It quietly layers images of light, ash, aging, and memory, catching the faint flicker that remains inside everyday life.

It looks at light settling like ash and lifts voices left at the bottom of time.

A tanka collection by Azumi Tai. From the viewpoint of a poet who has lived through the postwar decades, it records life, history, the body, and the act of walking on the earth in tanka form.

A body and memory walking through the long postwar era resonate as songs of the earth.

A haiku collection by Mugiokahito Hoshino. It layers the quiet of seasonal words with the shades of daily life, gathering nearby nature and passing time in a poised haiku rhythm.

From the small place of the camellia, seasons and the feel of a life quietly open outward.
