The Complete Eastern Structures (Volume Two): Nos. 6-10

The Complete Eastern Structures / Volume Two provides the newcomer an excellent opportunity to own Issues 6 through 10 of R. W. Watkins’s groundbreaking magazine in one handy 8.5” × 11” collection. Born out of the ashes of Watkins’s Contemporary Ghazals, Eastern Structures is the only English-language print magazine dedicated exclusively to several major Asian verse forms. Always true to form, ES publishes the most accurate representations of the ghazal, sijo, haiku and tanka in English today. Also featuring essays and editorials, this collection offers an excellent cross section of the best work from 2018–19 by some of the premier poets working in such forms. Among others, Steffen Horstmann, Denver Butson, William Dennis, Mace Hosseini, Eric Torgersen, Muhammad Zahid, Norma Jenckes, L. J. McDowall, Tamara K. Walker, Edward Baranosky, Priscilla Lignori, Mark Redfearn, Clark Strand, Nancy Rullo and Watkins himself are all well represented. Issues 6 through 10 of Eastern Structures are still available individually from Amazon.
