Left-Wing Propaganda
This old chestnut of a book should be put out of its misery. It's written with style and a tone of authority, but careful reading shows that it is hopelessly slanted. On every significant point which involves historical uncertainty or controversy, the authors unquestioningly accept the left-wing/labor point of view and...

Not classic, but Inspiring haiku, bringing art into everyday
I received this book as a gift from a friend a couple of years ago which inspired our circle of friends to start our own little haiku challenge. The poetry in this book is a collection of snippets from the lives of ordinary but creative people. It proves that everyone can find a little bit of revelation in their lives,...

Three Lines Do Not Always Equal Haiku
Haiku is a Japanese lyric with a deceptively simple form: 17 syllables in three lines of 5,7,5 syllables. Strictly speaking, a haiku must contain a "season word" and restrict itself to condensed, defined, natural imagery. Those are the outward rules, and they are rules which can be (and are) broken. It is in the inward...

No stars but they all think they are and have stuff to say.

Definitely NOT haiku - poetry? Maybe...
This is indeed a book of 3-line poems passing itself off as haiku.

It's the end of haiku as we know it...
This is what has become of haiku in English- and it is all bad. Haiku in America in general is vastly misunderstood and each of the verses in this volume show it. Some have three lines, some do not, some have kigo, some do not. By the looks of this, one can deduce that these "poets" gleamed their knowledge of haiku fro...

Disappointing
The Mothman story is indeed a fascinating one. Unfortunately, the same adjective cannot be applied to "The Mothman Prophecies."

the movie was better
Usually the book is always better. In this case, no way. I found it to be just a bunch of disjointed ramblings and partial recounts of what happened. I couldn't even finish it and gave it away. The movie didn't follow the book at all, but at least there was a thread of a storyline to follow.
