In 2005, Hamish Ironside wrote one haiku a day throughout the year. The finest of them were published by IRON Press in 2009 as Our Sweet Little Time, a richly entertaining and often very moving book (Liam Wilkinson, Prune Juice). A decade on, Hamish returns to the regimen. Three Blue Beans is the result, representing a sequel and a companion to Our Sweet Little Time. Like the first book, Three Blue Beans explores the possibilities of this most concentrated of poetic forms, offering haiku that range from the traditional to the experimental, combining striking imagery with philosophical reflection. With a leavening of humanity and humour, this is a collection of poems that is both accessible and enriching. The book is vividly illustrated with twelve linocuts commissioned by the publisher from the artist Mungo McCosh.

paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
