A selection of waka from the ancient literary collection, Manyoshu. Beautifull English renditions together with the Japanese originals, commentary, and photographs of the natural beauty and cultural legacies of Asuka Nara, the setting for this masterpiece.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is a luster to thirteen-hundred year old Japanese poems
which makes its appear as if they had been written yesterday.
Here is a selection of the best of the Man'yoshu, combined
with images by Japan's most eminent living photographer of
the landscape which inspired "the ten thousand leaves."
Man'yo Luster is a fusion of words and images, a double
rendering of an archaic vision for the contemporary world.
