Complex and yet a celebration of simplicity, poet Richard von Sturmer uses the "Tanka" poetic form to explore big themes in a very few words in his latest collection.
Resonating Distances shows Richard's mastery of the Japanese form of poetry, with the short form sequences leading into related prose passages.
Richard's also a musician, film actor and director and he runs the Auckland Zen Centre with his partner.
He reads from the new collection and talks with Lynn Freeman about it.
Resonating Distances by Richard von Sturmer is published by Titus.
