Eastern Structures No. 20

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 20 features the ghazals of Christopher Mooney-Singh, John Baglow, Jennifer Horne, Norma Jenckes and Shelli Jankowski-Smith; the sijo of Edward Baranosky and Gareth Writer-Davies; the haiku of Joshua St. Claire, Jonathan Aylett, Priscilla Lignori, R. W. Watkins, Alex Lubman, Danielle Woerner, Steve Denehan, Anne Hills, Becka Chester, Susan Polizzotto and several others; a renga by Joshua St. Claire and Jill Trade; and an essay on the 'Significance of Season' by Jim Wilson. Issue 21 of Eastern Structures is expected in Match of 2022, and submissions of traditionally structured Asian poetry and relevant non-fiction are welcome and encouraged.
