autumn’t: haiku of Jonathan Humphrey

$20.00

“Grounded in the physical world and soaring into uncharted imaginative invention, autumn’t is a delight to savor. As the title signals, a playful approach to language is fundamental to these wonder-filled haiku and haibun, which tenderly and boldly channel the full range of sensory experience through a deeply contemplative spirit.”
— Eve Luckring

Description

“Jonathan Humphrey’s work balances the normative with the experimental, the dark and mysterious with the lighthearted and playful. More than this, Humphrey has hacked into the connections we form on a deeper level. A father’s ghost, a kite string, a cotton dress all become portals to the past, to the future and to the cosmos. Like the dark around a cello, autumn’t is a finely tuned performance.”
— Chad Lee Robinson
