“I always insist that the written poems, even when they are said to be good, are only the second best, as the very best poems are left unwritten or sung in silence.” In this essay collection, Yone Noguchi explores the nature of Japanese poetry and its relation to the West.

Yone Noguchi was more than a poet—he was an ambassador between Japan and the West, an artist and academic who viewed critically and open-mindedly the relationship between an artist, their art, and their culture of origin. In this selection of poems, from his early free verse to his Japanese Hokkus, he establishes a place for himself in world literature.
