Tour de Force Of Visuals & Haiku Based on A Famous Poem

The authors have twisted Basho's Frog Haiku into an outstanding collection of witty puns, permutations, and visual poems. The poems are a great read of the authors' creative playfulness and the visual poems formed by hand drawn letters have a wry sense of humor. It's not a usual haiku collection but one that engages the reader in visual/verbal contemplation. I highly recommend it.
