One of the most exacting and purest of forms of poetry, haiku consists of seventeen syllables, expressed in three lines of 5-7-5 syllables. In Life: Haiku by Haiku, the concise forms of haiku, senryu and tanka are used to capture singular moments of life, love and loss.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJan Morrill's interest in haiku comes from her Japanese heritage. Her mother, a Buddhist Japanese American, was an internee during World War II. Her father, a Southern Baptist redhead of Irish descent, retired from the Air Force. Much of Jan's writing reflects her multicultural childhood. Jan's debut novel, a historical fiction titled The Red Kimono, was released by the University of Arkansas Press in February 2013. Her award-winning short stories and essays have also been published in several Chicken Soup for the Soul books and other anthologies. Jan is currently working on the sequel to The Red Kimono.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 88\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.18 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 03, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51748117283104,"sku":"9780615957470","price":13.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/1a1c829aa8d9a1b103e95b823920aad4.webp?v=1779904772","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/life-haiku-by-haiku-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
