here are some books i'm currently reading:
Modern Japanese Literature, Donald Keene (ed)
Race and the Avant-Garde: Experimental and Asian American Poetry Since 1965, Tim Yu
Delta Blues, Skip Fox
Through the Funeral Mountains on a Burro, Charles Freeland
The Complete Haiku, Basho
Letters to Poets: Conversations about Poetics, Politics, and Community, Jennifer Firestone (ed)

skip's poetry is always fascinating, and i'm finding tim's critical reading of the language poets and asian american poets as an interesting contrast/connection. beyond that, i'm teaching a class on japanese literature this summer, so i'm reading/rereading some of the classics.
