Haikus for Jews: For You, a Little Wisdom - David Bader

Descriere Haikus for Jews: For You, a Little Wisdom - David Bader

The 17-syllable essence of such enduring themes as chopped liver, putting an eye out, plastic-covered sofas, and ungrateful children fill the pages of Bader's humorous look at kvetching. \nWhy is this haiku book different from all other haiku books? \nFor centuries, the Japanese haiku has been one of the world's most dazzling poetic forms. In just three short lines, it captures the sublime beauty of nature--the croak of the bullfrog, the buzzing of the dragonfly, the shriek of the cicada, the scream of the cormorant. Now, with Haikus for Jews, there is finally a collection that celebrates the many advantages of staying indoors. \n \nInspired by ancient Zen teachings and timeless Jewish noodging, this masterful work is filled with insights that will make you exclaim, Ah or at least Oy Whether you are Jewish or you simply enjoy a good kosher haiku, these chai-kus (so called because of their high chutzpah content) are certain to amuse. What's more, with each poem limited to seventeen syllables, Haikus for Jews is perfect for people in a hurry. Find out why God has made these The Chosen Haikus.\n
