poems

Jane Miller's seventh collection of poems is in part a literary homage to Hiroshige, Japan's master print artist who immortalized scenes along the Tokaido, the "Eastern Sea Road." Like Hiroshige's prints, Miller's poems are a window through which we view the joyous details of the difficult lives of innkeepers, cooks, porters, wrestlers, and men and women of the pleasure quarter. She freely draws from Hiroshige's world to illuminate the cultural and moral grounding of the nuclear age.
