Synopsis

Although he lived only to age thirty, Nakahara Chuya ranks among the finest of Japanese poets, evoking in his work the alienation, ennui and romantic melancholy of a changing world. This edition collects both his published and unpublished work, from his traditional Japanese tanka to his experiments with European modernism, and captures in a melodic new translation the beauty and intimacy of Chuya’s voice, showing why it has resonated with readers for a century.
