The world’s premier publisher of Asian forms in English, 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 tanka and renga—rendered exclusively in the 5-7-5-7-7 syllabic structures. Issue 25 features the ghazals of Sreeja Chakraborty, Steffen Horstmann, John Steele, Gail Foster, Mace Hosseini, Terri Simon and several others; the sijo of Edward Baranosky, Sarah Taylor, and Gareth Writer-Davies; and the tanka of AnnMarie Marek, Isi Unikowski, Danielle Woerner, Maureen Clark and Katherine West. The issue also includes 'Of Fabrication through Indoctrination': R. W. Watkins's exposé of his personal brush with the dubious events leading up to Haiku Canada's recent Atlantic, er, MARITIME Haiku Anthology. The next issue of Eastern Structures is scheduled for the spring of 2025.
