Eastern Structures No. 3 (Volume 1)

Eastern Structures picks up where Contemporary Ghazals left off, publishing English-language examples of the Middle Eastern form, but now in addition to Korean sijo and Japanese forms such as haiku and tanka -- rendered exclusively in the 5-7-5 and 5-7-5-7-7 syllabic structures. Issue 3 features the poetry of Steffen Horstmann, Eric Torgersen, Norma Jenckes, William Dennis, Eugene A Melino, Li?saidh, Chi Holder, Priscilla Lignori, Clark Strand, Bill West and Craig W Steele, among others; and the critical essays of R W Watkins, L J MacDowall, and Jim Wilson. Also included is R K Singh's tribute to noted ghazal poet I H Rizvi (1936-2015). Issue 4 is expected in late Summer 2017, and submissions of traditionally structured Asian poetry and relevant non-fiction are welcome and encouraged.
