About the Book

The book Wasabi in my latte... (Senryu poetry) by Daniel Nepomuk who lives in Puerto Rico is a welcome change from some of the senryu books I've read to-date, and I can honestly say that I liked it a lot! His fresh and honest approach is quite titillating, the simple shapes of font illustrations add immensely to the overall feeling of the publication. You can tell right off by the introduction in Daniel's book that he has definitely done his homework about the senryu form. He lets readers know how to pronounce the word, he explains the proper construction of this form, and even gives the meaning of the word senryu, "river willow." Moving forward as I read, it quickly became my opinion that Daniel has also grasp the way to write a good senryu. One of the first in his book was this one that (being Irish) I can chuckle about and comfortably quote without prejudice: During a calm night the old Irish bartender starts to fight himself Here is what the author says of himself and about his book: "Daniel Nepomuk was born in 1979 and spent a great deal of his teens in New York City. Wasabi in my latte... is Nepomuk's first poetry work in English. It contains verses that were inspired in the most unconventional ways as most of these Senryu were born from real experiences. If you liked this little book please spread the word. The funds obtained from it will go to charity (12%) and the rest will help me through graduate school." And yet a couple more before I leave the rest of the reading to you: A black Friday sale changes unexpectedly into a huge war (Of all the needles the rusty one pinched my skin...) Hello! Meet my wife... -an'ya cattails principal editor USA-"

About the Author :
Daniel Nepomuk (born 22 September 1979) is a Nuyorican poet currently residing in Puerto Rico. As a child, his talented family exposed him to visual and performing arts including theater, music and prestidigitation. However, when he became an adolescent his parents encouraged him to follow a different path in life. Nepomuk holds a BA in pedagogy and a minor in psychology from Universidad Metropolitana of Puerto Rico (UMET). He is currently working on a Master's degree in theology from Nyack College. Daniel became involved in the poetry scene in the summer of 2014 after he published his first 13 poems. These were inspired from Pablo Neruda's "Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair." Nepomuk was quickly featured in Puerto Rico's local radio and in local events involving educational institutions such as Universidad de Puerto Rico and Universidad del Sagrado Corazon. These events encouraged Nepomuk to take poetry seriously. At age 35, he constantly felt that his monotonous life would continue like that until the end... Today he thinks differently. Currently, Nepomuk is the author of two poetry works. The first work "Un poeta encarcelado aprendio a volar..." is inspired in the life and work of Spanish poet Miguel Hernandez from the generation of 1936. The second work is inspired in Japanese Senryu, a poetic form Nepomuk discovered when he was introducing Haiku to high school youngsters in Puerto Rico. As he states in his own words "Poetry is a powerful tool to discover what's in our heart. It allows us to better know ourselves. Reading and writing poetry enables us to start a healing process within the heart. It allows us to better understand and rationalize our pains and joys. By understanding ourselves and consciously scrutinizing our lives, minds and spirit we are able to grow stronger. We are able to change. We are able to help others in their respective quests in life. My goal with poetry is to encourage it and make it more accessible than it is right now, specially in "Third World" countries where taking the time to write poetry can be a luxury that very few can afford. This shouldn't be so as we all have experiences and insights that surely can enrich and nourish each others lives. After all, the World is just one big body and we are all part of that equation..." Daniel Nepomuk is currently residing in Puerto Rico with his wife and two toddlers. He expects to finish and launch his third poetry work by the end of 2015."
