A diary translated from the Japanese written by the founder of the Yuki Teikei Haiku Society, Kiyoshi Tokutomi. He was born in 1923 in Watsonville, CA.

After the war he returned to the U.S. The treatmemt of the disease and subsequent pneumonia using kanamycin left him totaly deaf. This diary written from July 1975 to December 1977 shows a person who deals with personal adversity with character and inventiveness. The diary covers the early years of the Yuki Teikei Haiku Society which he and his wife, Kiyoko, founded.
