About the productJapanese

This book contains "renshi" (linked poems) by a national poet and two other notable poets, as well as "stories" between three people who are like a master and disciple, or classmates. This is a book that even those who have not read many poetry or tanka collections can enjoy.

[About this book]
This book is a collection of linked poems and tanka poems, as well as stories between poets and tanka poets.
The "Renshu" is a collection of 36 poems that were collaboratively written over a period of four months, beginning in a room in an apartment in spring.
The "Stories" are a sort of creative "post-conversation" in which the authors talk about the state of mind they were in when they wrote each of the 36 pieces.
Through misreadings and mutual criticism, the show is full of emotion and technique, laughter and thrills.

[What is Rengai?]
It is a form of creative writing in which poets take turns reading each other's poems to collaborate on a single work.
This time, we will be looking at "renshi" (linked verse), a combination of poetry and tanka, woven together by a poet and a tanka singer.
The poets took turns speaking in twos, specifically in the following order:

Okano Daishi (poet) → Tanikawa Shuntaro (poet) → Kinoshita Tatsuya (poet) → Tanikawa Shuntaro → Okano Daishi → Tanikawa Shuntaro → Kinoshita Tatsuya → Tanikawa Shuntaro → Okano Daishi... and this continues up to the 36th poem, creating a single linked poem.
