About: Midaregami
Midaregami (みだれ髪, Tangled hair) is a collection of tanka (短歌, “Short poem”), written by the Japanese writer Akiko Yosano during the Meiji period in 1901. Although later celebrated for its softly feminist depictions of a woman's sexual freedom, her work suffered heavy criticism at the time of publication for subverting contemporary gender norms.
