Synopsis "The Collected Poems of Chika Sagawa (Modern Library Torchbearers)"
Winner of the PEN Award for Poetry in Translation &; The electrifying collected works of &;one of the most innovative and prominent avant-garde poets in early twentieth-century Japan&; (The New Yorker). Translated by and with an introduction by Sawako NakayasuChika Sagawa was a leader of the avant-garde movement in post&;World War I Tokyo, a daring experimental poet whose work broke with the gender-bound traditions of Japanese poetry. Growing up in isolated rural Japan, Sagawa would move to Tokyo at seventeen, and begin publishing her work at nineteen. Almost immediately recognized as a leading light of the male-dominated Japanese literary scene, Sagawa&;s work combines striking, unique imagery with Western influences. The results are short, sharp, surreal poems about human fragility and the beauty of nature from Japan&;s first female Modernist poet. The Modern Library Torchbearers series features women who wrote on their own terms, with boldness, creativity, and a spirit of resistance.
