This remarkable new collection, which includes poems from both America and Japan, captures perfectly the thrill of baseball - a double play, a game of catch or the hushed pause as a pitcher looks in before hurling his pitch. Like haiku, the game is concerned with the nature of the seasons: joyous in the spring, thrilling in summer's heat, ripening with the descent of the autumn and remembered fondly in winter. Featuring the work of Jack Kerouac, the king of the Beat writers, who penned the first American baseball haiku, and Alan Pizzarelli, a major American haiku poet; the collection also includes Masaoka Shiki, one of the four great pillars of Japanese haiku, who fell in love with baseball when he was a student in Tokyo. Presenting more than two hundred of the greatest haiku ever written about the game, "Baseball Haiku" is a literary and baseball treasure.
