Rekitei Prize (formerly Fujimura Memorial Rekitei Prize)
倭人伝断片
Takuya Fukuda received the 56th Rekitei Prize for two books, "Wajinden Danpen" and "Wakusei no House Dust." "Wajinden Danpen" follows ancient place names and fragments of memory, expanding language toward a mythic space beyond individual life and death. The companion prizewinning volume, "Wakusei no House Dust," drives the physical force of language through fluid prose-poem structures.
Work Information
Antiquity, place, body, and cosmic dust intersect in these prizewinning poetry books, where language itself keeps moving.
"Wajinden Danpen" was published by Shichosha in 2017 and includes poems such as "Fragments of the Wajinden," "Kaguyama," and "Stone Circle." "Wakusei no House Dust" was published by Suiseisha in 2018 and includes pieces such as "Story in the Grass," "Wrinkled Darkness," and "Planetary Dust." Toyo University and researchmap profiles confirm that the two books together received the 56th Rekitei Prize.
Review Summaries
-
Critical responses value the way the poems repeat concrete places and memories like an incantation while summoning a mythic space. The collection is received as demanding close attention through its layered hardness and grace.
