«In My Loved Japan, [...] the Romanian poet Clelia Ifrim offers a very fine imaginative response to the tragedy that overtook northeast Japan earlier this year.

As far as I know the writer has never visited Japan, though she has long connections with it through haiku, and haiku poets.

"A river of tears — to whom belongs this silence after the earthquake?"; "Not a voice or sound but this moon path on the waves — fishermen's village";

"Hobby horse sinking in the depth of the ocean to make its farewell."»
