What is Breathing with the Mind : Verses in Senryu and Haiku Style about?

Haiku is a succinct Japanese verse-form with a long history that can be traced back at least as far as the 11th century. The name derives from "hokku", meaning "hook", and this type of verse was so named because its brevity led to the grouping together of several verses in chains or series. This book explores the history and origins of haiku, explains its essential principles, contains examples accompanied by brief commentaries and interpretations, and offers readers step-by-step guidance for composing their own haiku.
