Contemprary Tanka Poet Mariko Kitakubo. Article details.
Reading in Japanese/English/Vietnamese in Pasadena, CA.
April 17, 2015 Pasadena, CA, USA. Ms. Teresa M., an excellent poet I got acquainted last year in the U.S., translated my sequence "about Vietnam" in Vietnamese. As a token of gratitude for it, I translated her strong poems based upon her own experience. And today, we were able to have a trilingual reading session of Japanese, English, and Vietnamese. I really appreciate Ms. Kathabela Wilson, who organized this wonderful event, and offered her house to host it. |

I would also like to extend my sincere gratitude toward everyone at the event who accepted the reading with all my strength and all my heart. | |
