Hello, my friends. I'd like to call your attention to the amazing japanese poet Kenji Miyazawa (deceased 1993). For non-japanese speakers, there is a nice website over here. where you can find lots of info about him and his works.

For japanese speakers...well...since he's one of the most celebrated XX Century japanese poets, I guess it won't be hard to find more, hehe.

He was also a superb storyteller. His short stories are very good (ranging from fantasy to science fiction and other themes).
As a geologist, he knew much about the natural world, and as a devout buddhist, he believed everything in the world is connected.

Oh, well...I hope you enjoy. Bye!
