Seasons of Love Around the Rising Sun

Seasons of Love around the Rising Sun by Tamiko Dooley is a sweetly-observed portrait of childhood and vulnerable moments shuffled into four six-poem decks of spring, summer, autumn and winter. Dooley writes of pickled plums tucked under tatami straw floors, a kokeshi doll gifted by her uncle, her grandmother sealing envelopes with leftover rice and other details that lead down a path that winds through her most tender memories. A luscious, poignant selection of poems.
