Today the form is practiced worldwide and has become established as part of our common global heritage. This beautiful traditionally hand-bound volume presents new English translations of classic poems by the four great masters of Japanese haiku – Matsuo Basho, Yosa Buson, Kobayashi Issa, and Masaoka Shiki – accompanied by both the original Japanese and a phonetic transcription, and a photograph or artwork highlighting or echoing the poem's theme. With a timeless design, Haiku Illustrated is an expert introduction and celebration of one of the most beautiful and accessible forms of poetry in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners Books Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57130776592759,"sku":"9781838860431","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0357\/3199\/6807\/files\/9781838860431.jpg?v=1780063606","url":"https:\/\/thebookhousebroughtyferry.co.uk\/products\/9781838860431","provider":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
