Just as Ryokans life is inseparable from his poetry, the translations clarity of diction is inseparable from the sensitive brushwork on each page. A book to be gazed into again and again.-Charlotte Mandel, Small PressWhat shall remainas my legacy?The spring flowersthe cuckoo in summer,the autumn leaves.Ryokan (1758-1831) was a poet, master calligrapher, Zen hermit, and is one of the most beloved poets of Japan. Instead of becoming the head of a Zen temple, he preferred the simple and independent life of a hermit. Ryokans poetry is simple, direct, and colloquial in expression.
