Acutely observed, Colin Stewart Jones' new volume of poetry "Catch 41" reveals his world for us with the amused clarity of Ryokan and the open honesty of Issa. Never one to pull his punches, Jones again exposes the 'poseurs' of Japanese Short-Form poetry by his faithfulness to its ethos, and his use of a strict syllabic count in four lines, throughout the collection. Jones is saying something profound about form and content, with a consistently startling and engaging collection which blows us away with its poetic integrity.
