### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Good to read after you know the basics
  

*by I***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2008*

This is an excellent book about the Haiku style. Jane Reichhold is a talented writer. She presents her information in an engaging and interesting manner, and she covers a lot of information that I haven't encountered in other Haiku books, such as the forms of Cinquain and Sijo, which aren't Japanese, but which are similar in form to the haiku. Her work is compelling and comprehensiveIt's called a "hands-on guide" but don't read anything into that at all. By "hands-on" she means she invites readers to scribble whatever kind of notes they want to in the margins. By that definition, every book is a "hands-on" guide. It's not a workbook. There are no exercises.My only complaint is that the structure is all over the place. If you already know something about haiku and its associated forms like senryu, tanka, renga, haibun, and haiga, you'll pick up a lot of information about the styles and techniques of the pivot, the line connection, the way the imagery should work, and the types of links from this book. If you're coming at this as your first book, you'll be confused. Start with something like How to Haiku and then come back to this.

    A Gem
  

*by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2020*

I have been writing and enjoying haiku since I was in middle school. This wonderful book encompasses every aspect of haiku from understanding the history and the reasons why haiku has rules to them, the differences between Japanese and English haiku.  It has provided me with how to enhance my writing of haiku. It's a gem.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A great approach to writing and understanding Haiku
  

*by B***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2018*

A great approach to writing and understanding Haiku, particularly the difference between American and Japanese styles. Some portions did not resonate as well with me personally but I can honestly say I learned much from this book and the diversity of my own haiku writing has grown tremendously since reading.
