Criticism

Reviews

Hamanaka, author and illustrator of Peace Crane and All the Colors of the Earth, writes in a clear, straightforward prose that seems inspired by the focused simplicity of the masters she and Ohmi interviewed. Hamanaka's illustrations and Ohmi's calligraphy work beautifully with the text.[4]
