Eastern Structures No. 5
R W Watkins
The world's premier publisher of Asian forms in English, Eastern Structures picks up where Contemporary Ghazals left off, publishing English-language examples of the Middle Eastern form, but now in addition to Korean sijo and Japanese forms such as haiku and tanka -- rendered exclusively in the 5-7-5 and 5-7-5-7-7 syllabic structures. Issue 5 features the ghazals of Denver Butson, John Philip Drury, Steffen Horstmann, William Dennis, Eric Torgersen, Mindy Watson and editor R W Watkins; the sijo of Tamara K Walker, Chi Holder and Pat Geyer; the haiku of Mark Redfearn, Priscilla Lignori, James Lignori, Michael Lustbader, Ann Hills and several others; the third in a series of sijo essays by L J MacDowall; and an introduction to the Cambodian pathya vat by Bob Newman with exemplary contributions by Gareth Writer-Davies. Issue 6 is expected in late Winter or early Spring 2018, and submissions of traditionally structured Asian poetry and relevant non-fiction are welcome and encouraged
