Comments

“Do we sing or do we not sing?” is a powerful book in its delicacy, precious to give as a gift or to treat yourself with, to a garden of insects and little animals that makes us pause the inner noise so we can listen to nature, contemplate and let ourselves be captivated by the wonderful art of haiku.
