Why is this haiku book different from all other haiku
books?
For centuries, the Japanese haiku has been one of the world's
most dazzling poetic forms. In just three short lines, it captures
the sublime beauty of nature--the croak of the bullfrog, the
buzzing of the dragonfly, the shriek of the cicada, the scream of
the cormorant. Now, with Haikus for Jews, there is finally a
collection that celebrates the many advantages of staying
indoors.
Inspired by ancient Zen teachings and timeless Jewish noodging,
this masterful work is filled with insights that will make you
exclaim, "Ah!" or at least "Oy!" Whether you are Jewish or you
simply enjoy a good kosher haiku, these chai-kus (so called because
of their high chutzpah content) are certain to amuse. What's more,
with each poem limited to seventeen syllables, Haikus for
Jews is perfect for people in a hurry. Find out why God has
made these The Chosen Haikus.
