Bio Sketch
The haiku and haiga of Stephen Addiss have appeared widely. His books include Cloud Calligraphy, A Haiku Menagerie, The Art of Zen, Haiga: Haiku-Painting, The Art of Chinese Calligraphy, Haiku People, A Haiku Garden, Haiku Humor, Tao Te Ching, Japanese Calligraphy, Haiku: An Anthology, and The Art of Haiku.
In Ls 1&2, Steve's emotionally effective use of parallelism foregrounds the relationship aspect of the idea of heteroglossia. And the image of a humming fridge not only gives added significance to the idea, but also puts an emphasis on the "hai" aspect of the poem.
