Haiku on 42nd Street:
A Celebration of Poetry&Art
by Editors of Clerisy Press
Once associated with Broadway premieres and New Year's Eve, Times Square has more recently been known more for its porn shops, prostitutes, and other purveyors of questionable moral fiber. Starting a decade ago, everything began to change. The city shuttered the flesh shops, buildings closed for renovation, and a wonderfully whimsical collection of wordplay appeared on the abandoned movie marquees that stretched down 42nd Street. These enchanting, inspiring, even uplifting snippets are collected here in postcard form, for enjoying and sharing.
In celebration of the 10 year anniversary of this wonderful project,Haiku On 42nd St., originally a bestselling poster, has been adaptedand re-introduced as a postcard collection. Each haiku is presented ona single page and printed in full color on card stock with a postcardtemplate on the reverse. The pages are perforated so readers caneasily share this whimsical poetry with far-flung friends and family.
