Discover the beauty and clarity of life's final moments through Japan's haunting tradition of jisei—poems written at the edge of death.
This moving collection brings together hundreds of translated death poems by Zen monks, haiku poets, and samurai warriors—many appearing in English for the first time. Compiled by renowned scholar Yoel Hoffmann, Japanese Death Poems offers more than exquisite verse: it explores Japan's deep-rooted cultural approach to mortality, impermanence, and spiritual release. With vivid commentary and historical insight, this volume reveals how clarity, humor, and grace can emerge at life's end.
A powerful and contemplative listen for poetry lovers, spiritual seekers, and anyone drawn to the mystery of death.
