In her short career as a poet, she wrote 512 children's poems. Not all of them were published during her lifetime, but in 1983, a children's literature scholar discovered one set of the three notebooks that had been given to Misuzu's brother who kept them over 50 years. Now, Misuzu's poems are loved by Japanese readers regardless of their age. Alice Major and Yukari Meldrum, two poets in Edmonton, Alberta, spent a number of afternoons trying to polish the translations that Meldrum had done in order to bring the beauty of Misuzu's poems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.1 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 19, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51793174167840,"sku":"9781790705320","price":16.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/ac2e207217dffc983c275e0eb3c31aed.webp?v=1780715432","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/shell-of-moon-and-sun-poems-by-misuzu-kaneko-translated-by-yukari-meldrum-and-alice-major-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
