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 haiku and tanka-rendered exclusively in the 5-7-5 and 5-7-5-7-7 syllabic structures. Issue 22 features the ghazals of John Baglow, Alison Stone, Mace Hosseini, J. F. Shahrukh and Faiza Anum; a selection of translations and original ghazals by E. J. W. Gibb, Walter Leaf, John Payne and James Clarence Mangan from R. W. Watkins's recent Early Journeys, Forgotten Logs: The Nocturnal iris Anthology of Ancient Ghazals in English; the sijo of Gareth Writer-Davies; the haiku of Alex Lubman, Jonathan Aylett, Reid Hepworth, Lynda Zwinger, Joshua St Claire, Marcia Burton and others; and 'Haiku Mind, Enlightenment, and R. H. Blyth' -- three related essays by Jim Wilson. Issue 23 of Eastern Structures is expected in the late summer of 2022, and submissions of traditionally structured Asian poetry and relevant non-fiction are welcome and encouraged.
