In contrast, Issa focuses on more everyday themes.
Mr. Emori, what is that book you have?
This is a new one I bought yesterday. It’s an English translation of haiku by Kobayashi Issa.
I’ve never heard of him. Is he like Basho?
Not really. His style is different.
How so?
Well, I think Basho’s haiku focus on beaty and nature. In contrast, Issa focuses on more everyday themes.
Can you give an example?
There’s a famous haiku about a child wanting to grab the moon.
Interesting. I’ll be sure to read that book.
