Haiku/Senryu, Tanka, and Renku Anthologies
A Fountain of Dreams was edited by Dr. Kathleen P. Decker, based on a class she taught at George Mason University for the Osher Lifetime Learning Institute in Summer, 2025. Her adult students produced elegant haiku, senryu, tanka, and shisan renku. It quickly rose to be the number one ranked Japanese book on Amazon! It is illustrated with photos from her students, as well as a professional photographer and two images purchased from iStock.
