Rosenberry Books PRESS RELEASE

Rosenberry Books is proud to announce the publication and March 1, 2008 release of

a new book, “seasons of a hermitess: 101 haiku by an'ya” . . . ISBN 0-9727130-3-4.

This "Book in Hand" hand-bound edition was especially designed by artisan book designer, Diane Katz.

seasons of a hermitess can be purchased beginning March 1 of this year directly from  rosenberrybooks.com/bookinhandcatalog.html, or please call Rosenberry Books at 800.723.0336.

an'ya—a household name in the haiku world—is currently editor of  "moonset Literary

Newspaper” at http://moonsetnewspaper.blogspot.com. She walks quietly through the

seasons and observes 101 haiku touch 101 moments as they pass. With a deft and innocent brush of her hand, an'ya opens the door to each season with a sumi-e style haiga.

From the author’s preface: “We must not discount the complexity of this art form. It is far more difficult to be creative in three lines of limited syllables . . . in haiku, the impact must be immediate—then fleeting, just as those real moments in our lives and in nature.”
