Fire Blossoms: The Birth of Haiku Noir

Fire Blossoms: The Birth of Haiku Noir
 Fire Blossoms: The Birth of Haiku Noir is the definitive volume on haiku noir, from the editor of Haiku Noir, Haiku Harvest, and Ambrosia: Journal of Fine Haiku.

"Light a candle while you read FIRE BLOSSOMS: The Birth of Haiku Noir; it is a courageous piece of writing, one that is not for the faint of heart. Carl Jung cautioned how important it is to embrace the dark side of life. Garrison has walked into the shadows of war and chaos with eyes open wide, not afraid to confront the ghosts and the cadavers that most of us sweep under the carpet."
—Alexis Rotella, award-winning poet and author of Ouch: Senryu that Bite
