Ed Hopfner's work is characterized by being disruptive: he constantly plays with literary forms, punctuation and spelling to give an already characteristic touch to his pen. Autumn in April, his first collection of haiku, is no exception: with careful counting he recreates images that, at first glance, are not far from Japanese canons. However, in his writing, as always, traits and nods to the world of music are revealed to create cadences and rhythms, which can only be evoked by the hand of the writer who is aware of the score.
