Atlas Poetica 17: A Journal of Poetry of Place in Contemporary Tanka

Number 17 inaugurates the new, expanded Atlas Poetica. Now, as it begins its sixth year, it has grown to 104 double size pages and is the largest tanka journal publishing in English. This growth is made possible by ever increasing contributions of tanka, kyoka, gogyoshi, tanka prose, tanka sequences, shaped tanka, articles, book reviews, and announcements. Readers depend on Atlas Poetica to bring a diverse range of poets, styles, and subjects to every issue, and the new, enlarged format allows us to focus in this issue on French tanka and urban tanka from around the world.
