Books by Sakutaro Hagiwara
Cat Town
Sakutaro Hagiwara is perhaps the most important modern Japanese poet, a bad-boy dissident who transformed Japanese poetry forever. In this selection of poems--all in beautiful new translations by the masterful Hiro Sato--the editors have included both of Hagiwara's most famous works, Howling at the Moon and The Blue Cat, in addition to other poems from the writer's oeuvre.
