Haiku for Today’s World

“Reading should be proactive. And in one’s writings, one ought always strive to encourage this proactivity in the reader. Much like a coach, or a fan, cheering a player on to greater and greater feats- only in literature, the field-of-play is a book of poetry, or prose, or as in this case- haiku.” - Jon Seymour In his first ever commercial work, Jon Seymour has done just that- enticing the reader with his Haiku-inspired musings on myriad things, both universal and unique to our time. A stimulating and truly enjoyable read- you’re likely to find yourself referencing these triplets in your everyday conversations. No cranes, cherry blossoms or lotus leaves here- just the everyday subject matter which people vexed over hundreds (if not thousands) of years ago… and continue to do so, to this very day. With more than a few thoughts on items unique to our epoch. This universal appeal with a modern twist, will make it difficult for you to put Haiku down once you’ve started reading it. A page-turner, if ever there was one!
