Discounted haiku books on Amazon

Below are some heavily-discounted haiku books currently available on Amazon (except for the last one, which is still discounted... just not heavily). No idea how long these prices will last. All of these are for new paperback copies.

• fear of dancing: The Red Moon Anthology of English-Language Haiku 2013: $4.44

Annual Red Moon anthologies are a curated collection of some of the best haiku published in the previous year. They typically sell for $20.

This copy is a second printing. From the Red Moon Press website: "This reprinted edition may vary slightly in format, but contains all the content of the original Red Moon Press edition."

• A New Resonance 10: Emerging Voices in English-Language Haiku: $5.74

A collection of haiku from 17 poets, including Sonic Boom editor-in-chief Shloka Shankar. List price for this book is $20.

• a gate left open, by Alice Frampton: $4.89

This book from one of the masters of English language haiku won 3rd prize in the HSA 2010 Merit Book Awards.

• Arrhythmia, by Bruce H. Feingold: $4.89

Another ELH master. List price $20.

• The Classic Tradition of Haiku: An Anthology: $2.99

This book lists for only $4 regularly, so you're only saving a dollar, but it's a good read and a great value. It gathers haiku from many Japanese masters of the craft, not just but including the four notables (Bashō, Buson, Issa, and Shiki). One thing you'll find here that isn't often a part of other collections is a comparison of multiple translations for some of the poems. A lot of talented translators are represented: Allen Ginsberg, Donald Keene, Harold G. Henderson, Hiroaki Sato, William J. Higginson, and many others.

If you prefer to read electronically (and for free) some of these books may be available in The Haiku Foundation's Digital Library. I know a gate left open is; I haven't checked for the others.
