Japan Poets Club Newcomer Award
詩集 化け野
Naoko Ono's poetry collection Bakeno looks at the comedy and sadness of living through dry landscapes and bodily sensations, including bleached reed beds and the feeling of switching power off. In quiet solitude, it descends into otherworldly places beneath everyday life.
