About the Book
The River of Slightly Better Heaven
A Haiku Collection for the Spiritually Curious and Slightly Ironic
Take a dip in the upgraded spiritual stream you didn’t know you were missing.
In this whimsical yet reflective volume, poetic snapshots flow like water from the skies—capturing India’s sacred sites, ancient monuments, mythic echoes, and modern contradictions through the concise elegance of haiku. But don’t expect solemn sermons or heavy-handed mysticism. This is poetry with a wink and a wanderlust, written in Esperanto, where even the divine pauses for breath—and perhaps a joke.
A part of the evolving mjolnir_poeto series, The River of Slightly Better Heaven offers:
- Seventeen original haikus written for A1–A2 learners of Esperanto
- A bilingual layout (Esperanto + English) for maximum accessibility
- Reflections on temples, rivers, and celestial metaphors—with a twist
- The literary equivalent of a spiritual retreat...with snacks
Why learn Esperanto through poetry? Why write Japanese-style haiku about Indian monuments with a splash of humor? Because sometimes, enlightenment starts with not taking yourself too seriously.
