Songs of Wandering (Hōrō no uta, 1925) is an anthology of shintaishi or “new-form verse” composed by the twenty-five poet members of the “Wandering Poetry Society” (Hōrō no shisha). The anthology’s editor, poet Isshin Yamazaki, would go on to become a prolific anthologist of Japanese-language Japanese American literature, producing the volumes Hokubei bungeisenshū (Selected Literary Works of North America, 1927), Amerika bungeishū (Collected Literary Works of America, 1930), and Amerika bungaku (Literature of America, 1937).Collection
