貴椿: 神蔵器句集
Atetsubaki is Utsuwa Kamikura’s seventh haiku collection, gathering poems from spring 1998 to the first half of 2001. Moving beyond the darker tone of the preceding collection, it centers on the bright, pure, and dignified image of the camellia while deepening the sense of later-life time.
Work Information
Centered on the dignity of a white camellia, the collection holds both brightness and the aftertone of loss.
Published by Asahi Shimbunsha, the book gathers poems from spring 1998 through the first half of 2001 and sets forth the image of a bright, pure camellia. Passing through time after the loss of his wife, the poems carry deep resonance in images of whiteness and winter moonlight.
Review Summaries
-
The collection is striking because its clear brightness still lets the reader feel the time of loss behind it. Its dignity lies in how seasonal whiteness and coldness support emotion without overstatement.
