Twilight Sunrise: A Collection of One Hundred Tankas

In this arresting collection of one hundred poems, Christiana Rodgers uses the Japanese structure of the tanka to capture the essence of mood, image and event. Tight in thought, emotion and form, these poems have an incisive vision that cuts to the core of experience, and it is in a language of enduring elegance that the poet paints her Twilight Sunrise.
