Kasugai Ken: Go and Return Not - 1956-1964 - Unmarried Youth (Midnight Series)

Purchased as a used book.

This is a compilation of two collections: "Ike Kaeru Koto Naku" (Go Without Returning), a collection of 350 tanka poems written by the poet Ken Kasugai in his early twenties, and "Miseinen" (Not Yet Youth), his first collection of poems published in 1960, which he wrote in his late teens.
The design is also wonderful. The cover design is by the painter Mitsuo Kano.
The text pages have few stains and are in relatively good condition.
