A widowed water bird in an Amsterdam canal abandoned villages flitting fitfully by as he rides the Eurostar to Paris the sun, averse to setting, extending the you-filled day such are the diverse sources of inspiration for Brinckmanns poetry.
Unconstrained by locale or subject matter, his lines celebrate the marvel of love and ponder lifes irretrievable losses. He is no stranger to whimsy either, nor to the search for lifes ultimate meaning.
After publishing a highly-acclaimed autobiography (The Magatama Doodle, 2005); a cosmopolitan collection of stories (Noon Elusive, 2006); and a history of postwar Japan (Showa Japan, 2008), Brinckmann now offers his readers this selection of his poetry, written over the past half-century in seven countries. The book ends with the memorable Ballad of Hope Hill, set to music and performed in The Netherlands.
Brinckmanns translator, Hiromi Mizoguchi, has rendered the poems into exquisite Japanese, shown side-by-side with the originals.
