The collected English language haiku of the pioneering Japanese poet.

My Love's lengthened hair
Swings o'er me from Heaven's gate:

Yone Noguchi’s 1904 Proposal for English Language Hokku, illustrated with examples of his own work, legitimised for many the very notion of an Occidental haiku.
In this collection are featured the different cycles of his hokku as they appeared in journals, culminating in his 1922 book-length collection.
