520    "Thousands of books and monographs have been devoted to 
       the poet and critic Ishikawa Takuboku (1886-1912). 
       Although he died at the age of twenty-six and wrote many 
       of his best-known poems in the space of a few years, his 
       name is familiar to every literate Japanese. His early 
       death added to the sad romance of the unhappy poet, but 
       there has been no satisfactory biography of his life or 
       career, even in Japanese, and only a small part of his 
       writings have been translated. His mature poetry was based
       on the work of no predecessor, and he left no disciples. 
       He stands unique. Takuboku's most popular poems, 
       especially those with a humorous overlay, are well read 
       and memorized, but his diaries and letters, though less 
       familiar, contain rich and vivid glimpses of the poet's 
       thoughts and experiences. They reflect the outlook of an 
       unconstrained man who at times behaved in a startling or 
       even shocking manner. Despite his misdemeanors, Takuboku 
       is regarded as a national poet, all but a saint to his 
       admirers, especially in the regions of Japan where he 
       lived. His refusal to conform to the Japan of the time 
       drove him in striking directions and ranked him as the 
       first poet of the new Japan"--Provided by publisher.
